Description
This volume brings together four lines of study on the pope Nicolò V Parentucelli's famous urban plans for fifteenth-century Rome. The studies take a fresh look at Leon Battista Alberti's involvement in the plans, reexamining textual and architectonic sources, taking into account the complex contributions of other players, and ultimately establishing a clearer understanding of each antagonist's field and role. Italian text.
