Medieval Rome analyses the history of the city of Rome between 900
and 1150, a period of major change in the city. This volume doesn't
merely seek to tell the story of the city from the traditional
Church standpoint; instead, it engages in studies of the city's
processions, material culture, legal transformations, and sense of
the past, seeking to unravel the complexities of Roman cultural
identity, including its urban economy, social history as seen
across the different strata of society, and the articulation
between the city's regions. This new approach serves to underpin a
major reinterpretation of Rome's political history in the era of
the 'reform papacy', one of the greatest crises in Rome's history,
which had a resonance across the entire continent. Medieval Rome is
the most systematic analysis ever made of two and a half centuries
of Rome's history, one which saw centuries of stability undermined
by external crisis and the long period of reconstruction which
followed.
