Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. viii, 114 p. ; 21 cm. ; ISBN 9780888442819, 9789004084377, 0888442815, 9004084371 OCLC 21155221 LCCN 87178647 LC DG805 .G7413 1987 Dewey 914.5/632044 ; pictorial stiff paper wrappers ; Master Gregory was from Britain. It has been surmised that he was the chancellor of the papal legate Otto of Tonengo, mentioned in a document of 1238.17 It is an attractive hypothesis, and enables one to date the Narracio near 1226 ; Medieval Rome was uniquely important, both as a physical city and as an idea with immense cultural capital, encapsulating the legacy of the ancient Empire, the glorious world of the martyrs and the triumph of Christian faith. Rome Across Time and Space explores these twin dimensions of 'place' and 'idea' and analyses Rome's role in the transmission of culture throughout the Middle Ages. Ranging widely over liturgy, architecture, sculpture and textual history, the authors focus on the mutual enrichment derived from the exchange of ideas and illuminate how cultural exchanges between Rome and its 'neighbours' (Byzantium, Italy, England and France), and within Rome (between Ancient and early Christian Rome and the medieval city) worked as catalysts for change, both to shape the medieval city and to help construct the medieval idea of Rome itself. The result is a rich and original perspective on a beguiling city with enduring appeal. ; name of Kenesaw State University professor Howard Shearly (1949-2023) on front endpaper. ; VG. Book.
