Italian text and English translation of 100 clinical consultation lettes written by Morgagni, discussing patients that in most cases he had not seen, a practice that was considered acceptable at the time. Morgagni gave these, along with 14 folio volumes of his writings to his favorite pupil Michele Girardi. They were edited and annotated by Enrico Benassi and published in Italian in 1935. Jarcho translated and annotated Benassi's text and added a new preface and many footnotes.
