Abstract

One of the most important cities in the Mediterranean, Ravenna still boasts a series of monuments that have been exceptionally well-preserved, and very often still have their original decorations, mosaics in particular. The great historian Arnaldo Momigliano was right when he said, "When I want to understand Italian history, I catch a train and go to Ravenna". Indeed, with its capacity for selfpreservation, the city is an outstanding example of town planning. It is still burdened, however, by common places or stereotype-like formulae that have survived until today as the "Byzantium of Italy". This is a common, simplified definition that does not grasp the uniqueness and grandeur of the extraordinary "Roman" city of Honorius and Galla Placidia that experienced an important Byzantine period after Theodoric. For years there has been a vertiginous multiplication of specialised studies albeit lacking in works that offered a general overview whilst effectively explaining its main features. A combination of scientific rigour and clarity, this publication outlines the history and town planning of the city from its distant Etruscan origins up to the battle that in 1512 changed its destiny once and for all, when it became part of the pontifical dominion. The whole series of the lavish buildings that were constructed in late ancient times and their decorations (San Giovanni Evangelista, Santa Croce, the Arian cathedral of Santo Spirito, San Apollinare Nuovo, San Vitale and San Francesco), is studied here from a critical, but updated profile and set in the historical context that generated it and in the complex urban situation, that was originally a perfect balance between land and water but then became increasingly precarious. Countless new facts emerged as did much material that was little known or is published here for the first time. With this in mind, there was also a unique opportunity: the possibility to carry out a totally new photograph campaign, which was made possible together with the author thanks to the collaboration of the Archaeological Superintendency of Emilia Romagna, the Superintendency for Architectural and Landscape Heritage of Ravenna, and the Cultural Heritage Office of the Archiepiscopal Curia. What emerged is a Ravenna that is in many ways new, or at least radically renewed, with many surprises for even the most expert scholars.

Abstract

Labics ist eines der führenden jungen Architekturbüros in Italien. Es hat sich mit Beiträgen zu internationalen Wettbewerben und viel beachteten Bauten einen Namen gemacht. Nun erscheint die erste Monografie über ihr beeindruckendes Schaffen. Zu den vorgestellten Gebäuden und Projekten zählen Wohn- und Geschäftshäuser, Museen, Schulen, öffentliche Plätze, Begegnungszentren und U-Bahnstationen - ausserhalb von Italien in London, Finnland, Saudiarabien, Bosnien, der Schweiz und im Iran. Mit atmosphärischen Fotografien und umfassendem Planmaterial werden Konzepte und Details der Bauten dargestellt.Leitbegriff für das Buch ist das Wort "Strukturen", das in fünf thematischen Essays untersucht wird, in denen es um geometrische Strukturen, tragende Strukturen, Strukturen öffentlicher Räume, Erschliessungsstrukturen und um urbane Strukturen in einem übergeordneten Sinn geht. Jedes der Felder wird aufgefächert und interpretiert und dann auf seine Bedeutung im Schaffen von Labics hin untersucht. Diese fünf thematischen Exkurse bilden das Gerippe, in das die Präsentation der rund 20 Bauten und Projekte des römischen Büros eingehängt sind.
