Examining the urban and architectural developments in Rome during
the Pontificate of Julius II (1503-13) this book focuses on the
political, religious and artistic motives behind the changes. Each
chapter focuses on a particular project, from the Palazzo dei
Tribunali to the Stanza della Segnatura, and examines their
topographical and symbolic contexts in relationship to the broader
vision of Julian Rome. This original work explores not just
historical sources relating to buildings but also
humanist/antiquarian texts, papal sermons/eulogies, inscriptions,
frescoes and contemporary maps. An important contribution to
current scholarship of early sixteenth century Rome, its urban
design and architecture.
