S. Architecture, University of Cincinnati, 2003 Committee Chair: Gordon Simmons Abstract Public architecture that frames civic space, enlivens political debate, and embodies democratic ideals is the focus of this thesis. In the United States, civic architecture historically sought to express the purposes and ideals of the new institutions of a representative democracy. Civic architecture further shaped and bounded the civic sphere of public discourse. The decline of the public realm in the nineteenth century has, by extension, resulted in a decline of the civic realm. This thesis investigates how civic architecture can best reflect and embody, represent and nurture, a civil society appropriate to a twenty-first century representative democracy, while seeking to frame a contemporary civic realm. The analysis continues to the symbolic and spatial evocations of civil society ideals within American architecture, and an investigation into the changing concepts of civic architecture. Finally, the design project seeks to express and realize such civil society ideals through an urban design project for the public square of Mansfield, Ohio, and the design of a new county courthouse.

  • The Fountains of Siena
    Guide to Siena and the Senese: www.siena-guide.com THE FOUNTAINS OF SIENA Being a city without a river, Siena has to depend on water from elsewhere. In the Middle Ages, the city arranged to bring water from the hills in underground channels (bottini) which emerge in “fountains” (fonti) all over the city, from which the citizens drew the water for their needs. The larger ones had three pools feeding into each other; the first and highest one was for drinking water; the next for watering animals and the third for laundry. Water flowing from the third pool then went on to operate mills or irrigate gardens. Many of these fountains were housed in architecturally distinguished buildings. Many fell into disrepair, but quite a few still have water coming into them and a society has been formed for their preservation and that of the bottini, called the Associazione La Diana (named after a mythical river that was supposed to have run beneath Siena). Someone with time on their hands and a taste for urban walking (they are very spread out) could do worse than go on a fountain crawl. Fonte Gaia The best known is the Fonte Gaia (or Fountain of Joy) in the Piazza del Campo. The city employed Jacopo della Quercia (c.1374-1438), Siena’s most famous sculptor, to give it a beautiful carved marble surround. Unfortunately, over the years it deteriorated and della Quercia’s work was replaced in 1858 by a replica – although without two of the original naked statues which the prudish 19th century city fathers decided were unsuitable for public view.

  • Nevola Siena Companion Volume Essay 201216
    Pre-print text, not for circulation. Fabrizio Nevola (University of Exeter) ‘“per queste cose ognuno sta in santa pace et in concordia”: Understanding urban space in Renaissance Siena’, in Santa Casciani ed., A Companion to Late Medieval and Early Modern Siena (Leiden and Boston: Brill 2018). Abstract: This chapter offers a longue durée history of Siena’s urban development from the fourteenth century through to the early years of Medici domination (c. 1300-1600). As is well known, Siena offers a precocious example of urban design legislation around the piazza del Campo, which included paving, zoning rules, and rulings on the aesthetics of buildings facing onto the piazza. Such planning rules spread to encompass much of the city fabric through the fifteenth century, so that when the Medici took over the city, there is evidence of their surprise at the way urban improvement was enshrined as a core civic duty. While a focus of the chapter will look at urban planning legislation and its effects on the evolving built fabric over nearly three centuries, it will also consider how public urban space was used. Here too, there are continuities in the ritual practices that activated and inscribed meaning on the squares and streets as well as religious and secular buildings and monuments. It will be shown then that, as Bernardino da Siena’s commentary on Lorenzetti’s famous frescoes show, the built city is integral to the social interactions of its citizens. Illustrations: 1.

The cities of Tuscany have produced writers, scientists, architects, musicians, and artists such as Michelangelo, Brunelleschi, Galileo Galilei and G. Puccini, whose works have changed the world. In the late Middle Ages and throughout the Renaissance, Tuscany was a centre of the arts and learning. The Tuscan spoken language became the literary language of Italy after Dante Alighieri, Petrarch and Boccaccio used it in their works. Notable schools of architecture, sculpture and painting developed from the 11th century in many cities, particularly Florence, Pisa, Siena and Arezzo. From the 16th century, however, the intellectual and artistic life was almost wholly concentrated in Florence. History Tuscany was the home land of the Etruscans. It was annexed by Rome in 351 B.C. After the fall of the Roman Empire, the region, which became known as Etruria and later Tuscany, was invaded by the barbarians: the Goths, the Alemans, the Longobards and the Franks came down in successive waves until the 9th century.
