Maria Serena Vinci, Adalberto Ottati y Diana Gorostidi Pi (eds.), La cava e il monumento. Materiali, officine, sistemi di costruzione e produzione nei cantieri edilizi di età imperiale, 2023

Ante esta larga tradición de estudios, constituía un gran reto el hecho de aportar una visión multidisciplinar que escapase de los recurridos maniqueísmos y fuese ávida de comprender y explicar al lector/a un fenómeno de la complejidad y envergadura cómo fue el de la marmorización del mundo romano (Trillmich y Zanker, 1990). Dicho reto se ve consumado en la tarea que Maria Serena Vinci, Adalberto Ottati y Diana Gorostidi Pi, reconocidos expertos internacionales en la materia, han desarrollado en el ámbito de tres importantes proyectos de investigación y cuyos resultados se han materializado en este indispensable libro: La cava e il monumento. Materiali, officine, sistemi di costruzione e produzione nei cantieri edilizi di età imperiale.

Proyecto Palazzo focuses on one area of Villa Adriana in particular, corresponding to the imperial residence which was initially built in the villa. The palace area is superimposed on the pre-existing Republican villa, which was partially incorporated into Hadrian›s Villa. This fact provides special complexity and interest. In this paper, the results of the excavations performed during 2019 and 2021 are submitted. These excavations focused on the southern corner of the palace’s central portico (Portico B).

Throughout the conference, the word Empire will unite the
multiple subjects of discussion and evidence that power encompasses as an expression of humanity throughout the Mediterranean, with a historical context which dates back to Classical antiquity, through to the Middle Ages.
By incorporating different methodologies, we intend to approach the problem by stepping back from
the positivist approach which has previously prevailed in studies of power models and attempt to bring
it closer to a view from the peripheries. This will permit us to test the possibilities of reciprocal
influences from different geographical locations, going beyond the common interpretation of a
unidirectional diffusion of the models. Our conference wants to make clear the need for incorporating
a diachronic and holistic perspective which allows this generation of new researchers to be enriched by
the ideas and approaches of colleagues from different disciplines. For this reason, proposals are open
to archaeologists, philologists, historians, art historians, architects, epigraphers, or any other
researcher whose object of study is related to the theme of our conference.
