Linking Evidence

Linking Evidence

This project links in an interactive way written and visual evidence concerning medieval and early Renaissance Rome, including the descriptions of the City (from the Mirabilia Romae to the De Varietate Fortunae), the inscriptions associated with monuments and works of art, and the images attesting to the appearance of these monuments (either actual or imaginative) and to their transformation across the centuries. The descriptions of the different writers are also visualized through maps, where each monument is linked to related images and texts. This website also offers an 'intelligent' search by monuments.
