  • Liturgy, Space, and Community in the Basilica Julii (Santa Maria in Trastevere)
    DALE KINNEY Liturgy, Space, and Community in the Basilica Julii (Santa Maria in Trastevere) Abstract The Basilica Julii (also known as titulus Callisti and later as Santa Maria in Trastevere) provides a case study of the physical and social conditions in which early Christian liturgies ‘rewired’ their participants. This paper demon- strates that liturgical transformation was a two-way process, in which liturgy was the object as well as the agent of change. Three essential factors – the liturgy of the Eucharist, the space of the early Christian basilica, and the local Christian community – are described as they existed in Rome from the fourth through the ninth centuries. The essay then takes up the specific case of the Basilica Julii, showing how these three factors interacted in the con- crete conditions of a particular titular church. The basilica’s early Christian liturgical layout endured until the ninth century, when it was reconfigured by Pope Gregory IV (827-844) to bring the liturgical sub-spaces up-to- date. In Pope Gregory’s remodeling the original non-hierarchical layout was replaced by one in which celebrants were elevated above the congregation, women were segregated from men, and higher-ranking lay people were accorded places of honor distinct from those of lesser stature. These alterations brought the Basilica Julii in line with the requirements of the ninth-century papal stational liturgy. The stational liturgy was hierarchically orga- nized from the beginning, but distinctions became sharper in the course of the early Middle Ages in accordance with the expansion of papal authority and changes in lay society.

Burton’s words invoke the gallery of maps Pope Alexander VII assembled in Castel Gandolfo outside Rome in 1665 and animate Sutton Nicholls’s ink-and-wash drawing of Samuel Pepys’s library in London in 1693 (Fig. 1).2 There, in a room lined with bookcases and portraits, a map stands out, mounted on canvas and sus- pended from two cords; it is Giovanni Battista Falda’s view of Rome, published in 1676.

Spolia from the Baths of Caracallain Sta. Maria in Trastevere Dale Kinney Eight third-century Ionic capitals with images of Isis, Serapis, and Harpocrates, now in the nave colonnades of Sta. Maria in Trastevere, were taken from one or both of the rooms currently identified as libraries in the Baths of Caracalla. The capitals were transferred around 1140, when the church was rebuilt by Pope In- nocent II. The capitals would have been acquired by confiscation, juridically the pope's prerogative as head of the papal state; the lavish display of all kinds of spolia in Sta. Maria in Trastevere is here interpreted as a self-conscious demon- stration of that prerogative. The identity of the capitals' pagan images would have been unknown to most twelfth-century observers, because the only accessible keys to the correct identifications were one sentence in Varro's De lingua latina and another in Saint Augustine's De civitate Dei.

  • Architectural Spolia and Urban Transformation in Rome from the Fourth to the Thirteenth Century
    Patrizio Pensabene Architectural Spolia and Urban Transformation in Rome from the Fourth to the Thirteenth Century Summary This paper is a historical outline of the practice of reuse in Rome between the th and th century AD. It comments on the relevance of the Arch of Constantine and the Basil- ica Lateranensis in creating a tradition of meanings and ways of the reuse. Moreover, the paper focuses on the government’s attitude towards the preservation of ancient edifices in the monumental center of Rome in the first half of the th century AD, although it has been established that the reuse of public edifices only became a normal practice starting in th century Rome. Between the th and th century the city was transformed into set- tlements connected to the principal groups of ruins. Then, with the Carolingian Age, the city achieved a new unity and several new, large-scale churches were created. These con- struction projects required systematic spoliation of existing marble. The city enlarged even more rapidly in the Romanesque period with the construction of a large basilica for which marble had to be sought in the periphery of the ancient city. At that time there existed a highly developed organization for spoliating and reworking ancient marble: the Cos- matesque Workshop. Keywords: Re-use; Rome; Arch of Constantine; Basilica Lateranensis; urban transforma- tion. Dieser Artikel bietet eine Übersicht über den Einsatz von Spolien in Rom zwischen dem . und dem . Jahrhundert n. Chr. Er zeigt auf, wie mit dem Konstantinsbogen und der Ba- silica Lateranensis eine Tradition von Bedeutungsbezügen und Strategien der Spolienver- wendung begründet wurde.

  • Santa Cecilia in Trastevere
    (030/21) Santa Cecilia in Trastevere Santa Cecilia in Trastevere is a 9th century monastic and titular church and minor basilica dedicated to St Cecilia, 2nd or 3rd century Roman martyr and patron of musicians. 1 h History: The church is located in what was the most densely inhabited part of Trastevere in early Roman times; its large population mainly due to its proximity to the river Tiber. Where there are now convent buildings there were once four Roman streets surrounding a domus, above which the church was built. It is in the domus that the titulus of a Christian woman named Cecilia was housed. The river would have provided the domus with water for its bathhouse and tannery. j The account of Cecilia stated that she had persuaded her husband Valerian to be baptized. He was subsequently put to death, along with his brother, Tiburtius, and a man named Maximus. Cecilia was then taken before the prefect and sentenced to death by way of suffocation in the caldorinm of her own bathhouse. When this treatment failed to kill her, a soldier was sent to behead her but he struck three blows without succeeding, and she died of the wounds three days later. The remains of the executed men are known to have been buried in the Catacomb of St Praetextatus but the truth of the account and their connection with it is uncertain. 6 h j A sanctuary was built on the house of her husband, Valerianus. This became the ancient Titulus Ceciliae, one of the original twenty-five parishes of Rome.

AN ARCHIVAL PHOTOGRAMMETRIC PROJECT G. Fangi *1, C.Nardinocchi 2, G.Rubeca 2 1Ancona, Italia - [email protected] 2 DICEA, Sapienza University of Rome, 00184 Roma, [email protected], [email protected] Commission II, WG II/8 KEY WORDS: Documentation, Churches, Data Base, Panorama, Spherical Photogrammetry ABSTRACT: Rome is the city where two different cultures have found their greatest architectural achievement, the Latin civilization and the Christian civilization. It is for this reason that in Rome there is the greatest concentration in the world of Roman buildings, monuments and Christian buildings and churches. Rome is the seat of the papacy; say the head of the Christian Church. Every religious order, every Christian nation has created its own headquarters in Rome, the most representative possible, as beautiful, magnificent as possible. The best artists, painters, sculptors, architects, have been called to Rome to create their masterpieces.This study describes the photogrammetric documentation of selected noteworthy churches in Rome. Spherical Photogrammetry is the technique used. The survey is limited to the facades only, being a very significant part of the monument and since no permission is necessary. In certain cases, also the church interior was documented. A total of 170 Churches were surveyed. The statistics that one can derive from such a large number is particularly meaningful. Rome is the ideal place to collect the largest possible number of such cases.

  • Santa Maria in Trastevere
    A Building’s Images: Santa Maria in Trastevere Dale Kinney Images If only because it has an inside and an outside, a building cannot be grasped in a single view. To see it as a whole one must assemble images: the sensory impressions of a beholder moving through or around it (perceptual images), the objectified views of painters and photographers (pictorial images), the analytical graphics of architects (analytical images), and now, virtual simulacra derived from laser scans, photogrammetry, and other means of digital measurement and representation. These empirical images can be overlaid by abstract or symbolic ones: themes or metaphors imagined by the architect or patron (intended images); the image projected by contingent factors such as age, condition, and location (projected images); the collective image generated by the interaction of the building’s appearance with the norms and expectations of its users and beholders; the individual (but also collectively conditioned) “phenomenological” images posited by Gaston Bachelard (psychological images), and many more.1 In short, the topic of a building’s images is one of almost unlimited complexity, not to be encompassed in a brief essay. By way of confining it I will restrict my treatment to a single example: Santa Maria in Trastevere, a twelfth-century church basilica on the right bank of the Tiber River in Rome. I will focus on its intended, projected, and collective images in two key eras of its existence. Pictorial images, including those surviving inside the basilica and the representations of it by artist- architects in the 19th century, are considered in relation to the ephemeral images that are my principal subject and their role in constituting communal identities.

  • Best of Rome 2019 Preview
    Welcome to Rome Even in a country of exquisite cities like Italy, Rome is special. Epic, hot-blooded and achingly beautiful, it’s a heady mix of haunting ruins, awe-inspiring art, iconic monuments and vibrant street life. Rome’s historic cityscape, the result of 3000 years ROME of ad hoc urban development, is an exhilarating spectacle. Ancient icons such as the Colosseum, TOP SIGHTS, AUTHENTIC EXPERIENCES Roman Forum and Pantheon recall its golden age as caput mundi (capital of the world), while barn- storming basilicas testify to its historical role as seat of the Catholic Church. The city’s artistic heritage is also astonishing. Throughout history, Rome has starred in the great upheavals of Western art, drawing the top artists of the day and inspiring them to push the boundaries of creative achievement. The result is a city awash with priceless treasures. Ancient statues adorn world-class museums, Byzantine mosaics and Renaissance frescoes dazzle in art-rich churches, baroque fountains embellish medieval piazzas. Walk around the centre and without even trying you’ll come across masterpieces by the likes of Michelangelo, Caravaggio, Raphael and Bernini. But a trip to Rome is as much about lapping up the dolce vita lifestyle as gorging on art and culture. Whiling away hours at streetside cafes, idling on pretty piazzas, dining in boisterous neighbourhood trattorias – these are all an integral and enjoyable part of the Roman experience.
