[+] Sala, Emilio. "Verdi and the Parisian Boulevard Theatre, 1847-49." Cambridge Opera Journal 7 (1995): 190-91.

[from AG's dissertation: According to Sala, "a chorus from Alphonse Varney's music for Dumas and Auguste Marquet's Le chevalier de maison-rouge (1847) bears a strong resemblance to the opening chorus of La battaglia di Legnano (1849). Also another mélodrame/drame, Emile Souvestre and Eugène Bourgeois's Le Pasteur ou l'évangile et le foyer (1849) with music of uncertain authorship, may have provided musico-dramatic ideas for Stiffelio."]
