Description

Explore the history of one of Rome's most important medieval churches with this scholarly work from Routledge. Located on the Arx, the northern summit of the Capitoline hill, Santa Maria in Aracoeli stands as a significant survivor of Rome's medieval era. This book examines the church's role as the Roman headquarters for the Order of the Lesser Brothers, also known as the Franciscans. Through an interdisciplinary approach, the text combines archaeological analysis with historical findings to trace the site's evolution from the Altar of Augustus to the Franciscan era between 500 and 1450. It examines how the church functioned as a meeting point for the papacy, religious friars, the laity, and civic authorities. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of how these social and political relationships are reflected in the specific art and architecture of the site. This is an essential resource for students and historians interested in the intersection of religious orders and Roman civic life.
