Examining the urban and architectural developments in Rome during the Pontificate of Julius II (1503–13), this book delves into the profound political, religious, and artistic motives that drove these changes. Spanning a wide range of projects, from the Palazzo dei Tribunali to the Stanza della Segnatura, each chapter takes a close look at these structures' topographical and symbolic contexts in relation to the overarching vision of Julian Rome.
In addition to relying on historical sources related to buildings, this groundbreaking work also incorporates a wealth of humanist/antiquarian texts, papal sermons/eulogies, inscriptions, frescoes, and contemporary maps. By examining these diverse sources, the author sheds light on the multifaceted nature of the changes that took place in early sixteenth-century Rome, encompassing its urban design and architecture.
This original work makes a significant contribution to the current scholarship of early sixteenth-century Rome, offering a fresh perspective on the city's development and its architectural achievements. It is a must-read for anyone interested in exploring the rich tapestry of history and culture that characterized this remarkable period.
