Collana Presenze diretta da Sandro Benedetti Opera che fra le antiche poche ne hà pari, fra le moderne nissuna, e che difficilmente può essere eguagliata dalle future: con queste parole, alcuni decenni dopo il suo completamento, Domenico Bernini presentava il Colonnato vaticano, esaltandone l’eccezionalità storica. Proprio la convinzione che la corretta comprensione di quest’opera ‘unica’ fosse possibile solo affrontandone organicamente lo studio, indagandone cioè contemporaneamente i molti aspetti e significati, ha orientato il pluriennale lavoro di ricerca che è alla base di questo volume. Superamento della logica del contributo settoriale, rigorosa analisi di fonti note ed inedite (tra cui i modelli lignei, finora non esplorati), ricostruzione su nuove basi dell’iter progettuale ed esecutivo, scavo analitico dei diversificati problemi – economici, organizzativi, funzionali, strutturali – che il Bernini e la sua équipe hanno dovuto affrontare nell’arco di oltre dieci anni, interpretazione dei temi architettonici caratterizzanti (come le motivazioni alla base del Colonnato, i complessi rapporti tra Alessandro VII, il Bernini e Virgilio Spada, il confronto con la cultura architettonica cinquecentesca, l’incompiuta vicenda del terzo Braccio): questo l’insieme dei motivi del volume, che si propone di favorire una più estesa comprensione di uno dei massimi capolavori della cultura barocca europea. MARCELLO VILLANI insegna Storia dell’architettura presso il Dipartimento di Architettura dell’Università degli Studi “G. d’Annunzio” di Chieti e Pescara. Le sue ricerche sono orientate prevalentemente verso l’architettura dell’età barocca e del XX secolo. Autore di numerosi saggi apparsi su importanti riviste di settore, ha pubblicato le monografie Pietro da Cortona architetto (con Annarosa Cerutti Fusco); La facciata di S. Maria in Via Lata. Committenza, iconologia, proporzionamento; La più nobil parte. L’architettura delle cupole a Roma 1580-1670; I Palazzi delle Esedre. Ha preso parte a diversi Convegni internazionali, collaborando a Mostre ed a progetti nazionali di ricerca. Attualmente sta conducendo un articolato studio sull’architettura dell’età barocca nelle Marche.

Examining Bernini's works from 1665 on, from Paris and Rome, this book demonstrates the wealth of material still to be drawn from close visual and material examination, archival research, and comparative textual analysis. On the whole, this collection deals with Bernini's position as the leading creator of portraits - in oils, marble, monumental architecture, and metaphor - of some of the most powerful political players of his day. These studies speak to the growing distance of Gallic absolutism from the fading dreams of papal hegemony over Europe, and to the complexities of Bernini's role as mouthpiece, obstacle, and flatterer of the Princes of the Papal States.

Hersey explores the interrelations of the two developments, explaining how the advancements of geometry and the abstractions of mathematicians were made concrete in the architecture of the day.

This volume explores the mathematical character of architectural practice in diverse pre- and early modern contexts. It takes an explicitly interdisciplinary approach, which unites scholarship in early modern architecture with recent work in the history of science, in particular, on the role of practice in the “scientific revolution”. As a contribution to architectural history, the volume contextualizes design and construction in terms of contemporary mathematical knowledge, attendant forms of mathematical practice, and relevant social distinctions between the mathematical professions. As a contribution to the history of science, the volume presents a series of micro-historical studies that highlight issues of process, materiality, and knowledge production in specific, situated, practical contexts. Our approach sees the designer’s studio, the stone-yard, the drawing floor, and construction site not merely as places where the architectural object takes shape, but where mathematical knowledge itself is deployed, exchanged, and amplified among various participants in the building process.

Architectural Temperance examines relations between Bourbon Spain and papal Rome (1700-1759) through the lens of cultural politics. With a focus on key Spanish architects sent to study in Rome by the Bourbon Kings, the book also discusses the establishment of a program of architectural education at the newly founded Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando in Madrid. Victor Deupi explores why a powerful nation like Spain would temper its own building traditions with the more cosmopolitan trends associated with Rome; often at the expense of its own national and regional traditions. Through the inclusion of previously unpublished documents and images that shed light on the theoretical debates which shaped eighteenth-century architecture in Rome and Madrid, Architectural Temperance provides readers with new insights into the cultural history of early modern Spain.
