City of Saints

It was far from inevitable that Rome would emerge as the spiritual center of Western Christianity in the early Middle Ages. After the move of the Empire's capital to Constantinople in the fourth century and the Gothic Wars in the sixth century, Rome was gradually depleted physically, economically, and politically. How then, asks Maya Maskarinec, did this exhausted city, with limited Christian presence, transform over the course of the sixth through ninth centuries into a seemingly inexhaustible reservoir of sanctity? Conventional narratives explain the rise of Christian Rome as resulting from an increasingly powerful papacy. In City of Saints, Maskarinec looks outward, to examine how Rome in...

The 1960s and the 1970s marked a generational shift in architectural discourse at a time when the revolts inside universities condemned the academic institution as a major force behind the perpetuation of a controlling society. Focusing on the crisis and reform of higher education in Italy, The University as a Settlement Principle investigates how university design became a lens for architects to interpret a complex historical moment that was marked by the construction of an unprecedented number of new campuses worldwide. Implicitly drawing parallels with the contemporary condition of the university under a regime of knowledge commodification, it reviews the vision proposed by architects suc...

I Campus di Fisciano e Lancusi

Insediatisi nella valle dell'Irno a metà degli anni '80, i Campus di Fisciano e Lancusi sono cresciuti nel tempo e si sono affermati nel panorama delle Università meridionali come un importante punto di riferimento. Pur rifacendosi ad un illustre passato, e traendo ispirazione dalle esperienze e da importanti personaggi che ne hanno caratterizzato la storia, i Campus, oggi, hanno basato il proprio sviluppo sull'immagine di una Università moderna, dinamica, calata nella società contemporanea, che tiene alti gli standard educativi ma è anche vicina alle esigenze degli studenti. Un Ateneo in continua evoluzione che offre non solo un'ampia scelta di Facoltà, ma anche innumerevoli servizi, ...

At the end of the Second World War, America’s newly acquired status of hegemonic power- together with the launch of ambitious international programs such as the Marshall Plan- significantly altered existing transatlantic relations. In this context, Italian and American architectural cultures developed a fragile dialogue characterized by successful exchanges and forms of collaboration but also by reciprocal wariness. The dissemination of models and ideas concerning architecture generated complex effects and frequently led to surprising misinterpretations, obstinate forms of resistance and long negotiations between the involved parties. Issues of continuity and discontinuity dominated Italia...
