These monumental charitable institutions were urban expressions of sovereignty. Keyvanian traces the political reasons for their emergence and their architectural type in Europe around 1200. In Rome, hospitals ballasted the corporate image of social elites, aided in settling and garrisoning vital sectors and were the hubs around which strategies aimed at territorial control revolved. When the strategies faltered, the institutions were rapidly abandoned. Hospitals in areas of enduring significance instead still function, bearing testimony to the influence of late medieval urban interventions on modern Rome.Brill's studies in intellectual history ;Volume 252.Brill's studies in intellectual history.Brill's studies on art, art history, and intellectual history ;Volume 12.Hospital buildingsItalyRomeDesign and constructionHistoryTo 1500Public hospitalsItalyRomeHistoryTo 1500Architecture and stateItalyRomeHistoryTo 1500Cities and townsGrowthItalyRomeHistoryTo 1500City and town lifeItalyRomeHistoryTo 1500City planningItalyRomeHistoryTo 1500UrbanizationItalyRomeHistoryTo 1500Electronic books.Hospital buildingsDesign and constructionHistoryPublic hospitalsHistoryArchitecture and stateHistoryCities and townsGrowthHistoryCity and town lifeHistoryCity planningHistoryUrbanizationHistory725/.510945632Keyvanian Carla1066248MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910511708803321Hospitals and urbanism in Rome, 1200-15002548864UNINA
