Muratori's associates in his historical researches were Scipione Maffei of Verona and Apostolo Zeno of Venice.

Muratori, whose treatise on poetry was read by Algarotti and had an enormous influence, condemned the theater conventions of his day, and especially those of opera, for sacrificing poetry and expression to musical display and virtuosity, resulting in an effect he pointedly called inverisimile.
But then, Muratori deeply lamented the fact that in Italy there really was no theater outside of opera and that this was the very source of the problem.

The major writer was Pietro Metastasio (1698-1792), author of a number of melodramas in which the main characteristic is a dream-like idyllism, expressed in a highly musical language.
The historical studies of Lodovico Antonio Muratori (1672-1750), with their critical analysis of Italian civil and literary history, are also worthy of note.
His work displays a lyric-subjective style in which a sense of the mysterious is combined with suggestions of the subconscious, sensuality is put against the author's deep religious sense, and arcane, ineffable spiritual experiences are sought.

 Chapter 4 -- The Canon of Scripture
The heresy of Marcion required a response from the orthodox church, and part of that response led to a more formal development of the Canon in the second half of the second century.
One of the more important documents related to the development is the Muratorian fragment, so named because it was first published in 1740 by Lodovico Antonio Muratori.
The list is in Latin, the surviving copy is from the 7th or 8th century, but the original date of writing is probably around A.D. This fragment list the books of the New Testament that were considered authoritative in Rome at the time and comments on several of them.
