About this title

Synopsis

Several structural elements held fundamental importance in forming the architectural language of sacred

space in the Middle Ages. The most important of these,

although little studied in Italy, was the creation of varied

roofing systems (wooden roofs, stone vaults, domes).

The roof decisively conditioned the internal spatiality

and assumed primary importance in conditioning the

external form of the churches because the entire construction was based on the shape that the roof would

have. The aim of this book is to delve deeper into some

case studies of Italian churches from the Middle Ages

to the dawn of the Modern Era with a multidisciplinary

perspective (architecture, art history, archaeology, archaeometry, restoration). This publication forms part of

the activities of the CaMeRoofs (Cataloguing Medieval

Roofs) project, coordinated by the University of Cyprus

and funded by the European Commission under the

Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (ID: 101104788).
