Five lectures examining the urban and architectural history of modern and contemporary Rome from 1870 to the present day
45 years in the urban history of Rome divided into five temporal segments that roughly correspond to the decades by which they are spanned: in each of them we can identify themes, urban strategies and events that impacted on the forms of the architecture and the development of the city.
What are the themes that will characterise the city in the near future?
Piero Ostilio Rossi is a lecturer in Architectural and Urban Composition in the Faculty of Architecture of La Sapienza University and director of the Department of Architecture and Design.
