Roma communis patria, Campisano Editore, Rome
The book series is directed by Susanne Kubersky-Piredda
This book series presents the results of the Roma communis patria research project focuses on foreign communities in early modern Rome, their dynamics of cohabitation, and their interaction within the urban space. In particular, it addresses the question of how groups of people who shared common origins used art and visual culture to foster a sense of belonging among their members while also presenting their collective identities to an external audience. The latest volume, published in early 2024, examines the social dynamics and artistic patronage of the so-called “German” community in Rome and its church of Santa Maria dell’Anima during the turbulent times of religious conflict and confessionalization between the 15th and the 17th centuries. As part of our project Mapping Collective Identities in Via Giulia, we are furthermore preparing a volume on the church of Santa Caterina da Siena based on the PhD thesis of former fellow Lilla Matyok and centered on material culture in early modern processions.
