Rodi fu roccaforte degli Ospitalieri fino alla prima età moderna. La città visse un’evoluzione urbana e architettonica durante il dominio ottomano e italiano. L’iconografia fino al XX secolo mostra la ricerca di souvenirs medievali nella città islamica, la creazione di una meta di viaggio e lo slittamento dell’idea simbolica-geografica di città, legata al nuovo atteggiamento rispetto al costruito. Studieremo il ruolo mutevole della città storica nell’ideologia e nella pratica turca e italiana.

Abstract
Rhodes was the Hospitaller stronghold until the early modern age. It went through an urban and architectural evolution under the Ottoman and Italian rules. Iconography until the twentieth century shows the search for medieval souvenirs in the Islamic town, the creation of a travel destination and the shifting of the symbolic-geographic idea of city, linked to a new attitude towards built heritage. We will trace the changing role of the historic town in Turkish and Italian ideology and practice.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
