LADERCHI, GIACOMO. - Oratorian, historian, b. at Faenza ca. 1678, d. at Rome on 23 April 1738.
He occupied himself with hagiography and published various writings on the subject, among which Vita s. Petri Damiani (Rome 1702) and Acta passionis ss. martyrum Crescii et Sociorum (Florence 1707); both, but especially the second, obliged him to write two apologetic works: La critica di oggi ossia l'abuso della critica odierna (Rome 1726) and I congressi letterarii di oggi (Venice 1734). One may also mention: De basilicis ss. martyrum Petri et Marcellini dissertatio historica (Rome 1705); Acta s. Ceciliae et transtiberina basilica illustrata (ibid. 1772); but above all his continuation of Baronius's Annales with vols. XXXV-XXXVII for the pontificate of St. Pius V (Rome 1728-34) must be remembered. Of all these works it must be said that there is not always sufficient critical preparation and an exact evaluation of the documents and of their importance.
