Zusammenfassung:"Time in the Eternal City: Perceiving and Controlling Time in Late Medieval and Renaissance Rome" is a major contribution to the study of time and its numerous aspects in late medieval and Renaissance Rome. The authors offer a versatile view on the variety of ways time could be perceived. Individual chapters concentrate on the grass-root levels of everyday life, on various uses of the past in the present, as well as on the control of time by the ecclesiastical authorities. These studies reveal a wealth of new information that demonstrates the almost endlessly fluid manner in which time could be perceived, as well as the innovative ways in which time could be used by individuals and authorities alike.
Contributors are members of Tuomas Heikkilä’s research group at the Finnish Institute in Rome: Holger Kaasik, Urpo Kantola, Marko Halonen, Jasmin Lukkari and Saku Pihko.
