| Tóm tắt: | "Integrating the written sources with Rome's survivng remains and, most importantly, with hte results of the past half-century's worth of medieval archaeology in the city, 'The Making of Medieval Rome' is the first in-depth profile of Rome's transformation during the medieval millenium to appear in any language in over forty years. Though the main focus rests on Rome's urban trajectory in topographical, architectural, and archaeological terms, Dey folds aspects of ecclesiastical, political, social, military, economic, and intellectual history into the narrative in order to illustrate how and why the cityscape evolved as it did during the thousand years between the end of the Roman Empire and the start of the Renaissance. A wide-ranging synthesis of decades' worth of specialized research and remarkable archaeological discoveries, this book is essential reading for anyone interested in how the ancient imperial capital transformed into the spiritual heart of western Christendom." |
