3. The Roman Journals of Ferdinand Gregorovius 1852-1874, ed. Fried-rich Althaus, trans. Annie (Mrs. Gustavus W.) Hamilton (London, 1907), 26. For Margaret Fuller, see Memoirs of Margaret Fuller Ossoli (Boston, 1852), II, 216; my attention was drawn to her remarks by Giuliana Artom Treves, The Golden Ring, The Anglo-Florentines, 1847-1862, trans. Sylvia Sprigge (London, 1956), 160. Renan's Letters from the Holy Land, trans. Lorenzo O'Rourke (New York, 1904), 33.

6. The Roman Journals, 2.

7. Ferdinand Gregorovius, History, VIII, 725; V, 660 n.; VIII, 705. This preface was written sometime before the publication of Ferdinand Gregorovius, Rome and Medieval Culture, ed. K. F. Morrison (Chicago, 1971), to which Professor Leonard Krieger has prefixed three intensely enlightening pages (vii-ix). He speaks of Gregorovius as "an outstanding representative of that pungent mid-nineteenth-century historiography . . ." (vii). "Pungent" is exactly right for Gregorovius.

8. Gregorovius, History, VIII, 765; The Marble Faun, chapter 12; Passages from the French and Italian Note-books of Nathaniel Hawthorne (Boston, 1884), 221, 219, 496-497, 506; or Fuller, Memoirs, "The whole heart must be yielded up to it {Rome}."

Chapter I The Physical City

1. For population and size, see particularly J. C. Russell, Late Ancient and Medieval Population (Philadelphia, 1958), 109-110, and J. Beloch, Bevölkerungsgeschichte Italiens (Berlin and Leipzig, 1937-1961), II, 1-2, 19; but see Giovanni Mossa and Maurizio Baldassari, La vita economica di Roma nel medioevo (Rome, 1971), 15. Georgina Masson is particularly interested in, and interesting about, Roman flora--see, for example, The Companion Guide to Rome, 357. The best introduction to the type of thought represented by pseudo-Bede and the literary tradition concerning the Colosseum is probably Theodor E. Mommsen, "Augustine and the Christian Idea of Progress: The Background of the City of God," in Medieval and Renaissance Studies, ed. Eugene F. Rice (Ithaca, 1959), 265-298 (originally, Journal of the History of Ideas, XII {1951}, 346-374), 271. See Riccardo's Chronica, ed. Carlo Alberto Garufi, in Rerum italicarum scriptores, ed. Ludovico Antonio Muratori (hereafter, Muratori, RIS ), new series VII (Bologna, 1938), 174. In general, the history of Rome for the period is covered in two volumes, X and XI, of the Storia di Roma, published by the Istituto di Studi Romani; vol. X is Paolo Brezzi, Roma e l'Impero medioevale (Bologna, 1947), and vol. XI is Eugenio Dupré Theseider, Roma dal Comune di popolo alla Signoria pontificia ( 1252-1377 ) (Bologna, 1952).

2. Le liber censuum de l'église romaine, ed. Paul Fabre and L. Duchesne (Paris, 1889-1952), I, 566.

3. This account of John of Matha is based on an article in the Bibliotheca Sanctorum, VI, 828-838, by Ignazio del Santissimo Sacramento; for the medieval Claudia, see pasquale Adinolfi, Roma nell'età di mezzo (Rome, 1881-1882), I, 159. For the necessary reservations about John's historicity, see Paul Deslandres, L'Ordre des Trinitaires (Toulouse and Paris, 1903), 1-19. See Vincenzo Forcella, Iscrizioni delle chiese e d'altri edificii di Roma (Rome, 1869-1884), VII, 193, nos. 396, 397.

4. Codice topografico, III, 303 (Catalog of Turin, for San Salvatore); "Regesto del Monastero di S. Silvestro in Capite," Archivio della Società romana di storia patria (hereafter, ASRSP ), XXIII (1900), 97-98, no. 124 (Rome, Archivio di stato, San Silvestro, 119), for Gregorio. The detailed description of action at Sant'Angelo is actually from the fourteenth century, see below. For monumental names, see Giuseppe Marchetti-Longhi, I Boveschi e gli Orsini (Rome, 1960), 57.

5. For papal vineyards, see Adinolfi, Roma, II, 215, and Via del Corso (Rome, 1961). For the wall, see Ian Richmond, The City Wall of Imperial Rome (Oxford, 1930), particularly 10, 43-52, 89.

6. Le opere di Ferreto de' Ferreti Vicentini, ed. Carlo Cipolla (Rome, 1908-1920) {Istituto storico italiano: Fonti per la storia d'Italia}, I, 164.

7. Rome, Archivio di stato, Santo Spirito in Sassia, Coll. B, 5, for San Paolo. Carlo Cecchelli, in his extreme lamentations (and perfectly understandable ones) over the destruction of medieval Rome in his own time, suggests places like Anagni: Topografia e urbanistica di Roma, ed. Ferdinando Castagnoli, Carlo Cecchelli, Gustavo Giovannoni, Mario Zocca (vol. XXII of the Storia di Roma of the Istituto di Studi Romani), 326. For towers, see particularly Francesco Tomassetti, "Torri di Roma," Capitolium (1925), 266-277, and A. W. Lawrence, "Early Medieval Fortifications near Rome," Papers of the British School at Rome, XXXII (1964), 89-122.

8. For a sense of the country feudal holdings of the Roman nobility, see G. Tomassetti, "Documenti feudali della provincia di Roma nel medio evo," Studi e documenti di storia e diritto, XIX, (1898), 291-320, particularly 296-304.

9. For Antonio (or Antonano) and Pietro, see "Regesto di Monastero di S. Silvestro in Capite," ASRSP, XXIII (1900), 101-102, 418, nos. 174, 129 (Rome, Archivio di stato, San Silvestro, 161, 125). For the rione Ripa or Sant'Angelo and the Campo Marzio, see Rome, Archivio di stato, Santo Spirito in Sassia, Coll. B, 72, 106 (for 1325 and 1340), and 2, for Malaspina. See Brezzi, Roma, 325, 334; Dupré Theseider, Roma, 28; and Cecchelli in Topografia, 198; particularly Dupré Theseider for the twenty-six rioni of 1267. See Rome, Archivio di stato, Santo Spirito, B, 31, and San Cosimato, 317, for a notary (in 1283) of the city de dicta contrata Trastibere ; Gonippo Morelli, Le Corporazioni Romane di arti e mestieri del XIII al XIX secolo (Rome, 1937), 12; A. de Boüard, Le régime politique et les institutions de Rome au moyen-âge, 1251-1347 (Paris, 1920), 47-48.

10. In general, for a rather limited introduction, see Ottorino Montenovesi, "L'Archiospedale di S. Spirito in Roma," ASRSP, LXII (1939), 17-229. A number of related works about the hospital and order have been written by Pietro de Angelis; among these the most significant is probably L'Ospedale di Santo Spirito in Saxia (Rome, 1960-62), but one should also know of the existence of L'Ospedale apostolico di Santo Spirito in Saxia nella mente e sul cuore dei papi (Rome, 1956), and Regula sive Statuta hospitalis Sancti Spiritus (Rome, 1954). See, here, particularly L'Ospedale di Santo Spirito, I 373-384. For Thomas Anglicus, see Rome, Archivio di stato, Santo Spirito, B, 32 (1290).

For the crux gemina, see Herbert Paulus, "Doppelkreuz," in Otto Schmitt, et al., eds. Reallexicon zur deutschen Kunstgeschichte, IV (Stuttgart, 1958), cols. 215-223, particularly col. 220. Roman monasteries other than Santo Spirito used monuments as markers, for example, a Santa Maria in Campo Marzio monument in the Trevi (Arcione), "Regesto del monastero di S.

For the Orsini, see particularly Rome, Vallicelliana, Archivio storico capitolino, Archivio Orsini, II.A.II.47(ol.44), II.A.II.48(ol.45), II.A.I.25(ol.24), II.A.II.29(ol.27), II.A.II.36(ol.34), II.A.II.42(ol.40), II.A.I.50(ol.44), II.A.I.51(ol.49), II.A.II.2. I should like specifically to thank Mr. Richard Mather for having called my attention to this rich collection. It has an unusually helpful calendar-catalog: Cesare de Cupis (fu Natale), Regesto degli Orsini, I (Sulmona, 1903), a copy of which is conveniently kept on hand in the Vallicelliana, as is a copy of Giuseppe Marchetti-Longhi, I Boveschi e gli Orsini (Rome, 1960), a small book which attempts, although sometimes more bravely than successfully, to sort out a number of Orsini problems like genealogy, and which makes helpful suggestions, like those echoed here about Donna Maralda and arpacasella, and which indicates the centers of Orsini urban properties and their connection with the Boveschi (particularly 41-58, 55, 59). For the Theater of Pompey and the Orsini area around it see also Cecilia Pericoli Ridolfini, Guide rionali di Roma: Rione VI--Parione, II (Rome, 1971), 147-174. Saba Malaspina, Historia, in Muratori, RIS, VIII (Milan, 1726), cols. 785-874, see particularly 864, but also 813-814, and 835.

32. Axel Boëthius, Golden House of Nero (Ann Arbor, 1960), throughout chapter IV and its plates. For the Boveschi tower (Turris Johannis Bovis), see Marchetti-Longhi, I Boveschi, 45, 48, plate 1.

33. Rieti, Archivio capitolare, III, D, 1, and the less important III, D, 2 and 3. For the neighborhood Tor di Nona, see Carlo Pietrangeli Guide rionali di Roma: Rione V--Ponte, I (Rome, 1968), 49, 51, 59-60.

34. For colonnaded houses, see Rome, Archivio di stato, San Silvestro, 186, 200--186 is from 1310 and the rione Sant'Eustachio; 200 is from 1352, rione Colonna. In the latter document the abbess of San Silvestro, Jacoba Annibaldi, rents to Petruccio di Silvestro, for ten soldi and two denari each year for a period of nineteen years, a house in the Colonna, between the public road and the old wall of the monastery, a house with a garden behind it and a colonnade in front of it--rented in the presence of a Franciscan witness, Hugone de Anglia (Hugh of England).

35. The notarial books in the Archivio di stato begin in the mid-fourteenth century. They are discussed in an article by Clara Gennaro, "Mercanti e bovattieri nella Roma della seconda metà del Trecento," Bulletino dell'Istituto storico italiano, LXXVIII (1965), 155-203. But they (even Archivio del Collegio de' notari capitolini, 475, 849, and 1703) are considerably less concentrated and interesting than the cartularies from Sant'Angelo of which nineteen (Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, Sant'Angelo in Pescheria, I, 1-19) are fourteenth-century. There is also an interesting notarial fond, partly Roman, from 1344, at Farfa; see I. Schuster, "Un protocollo di Notar Pietro di Gregorio nell'archivio di Farfa," ASRSP, XXXV (1912), 541-582.

36. For Cola, see particularly, Gregorovius, History, VI, 232, 240, 372-373.

37. Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, Cod. Vat. Lat. 10372; I should like to thank Mr. Anthony Luttrell, who is working with this manuscript, for having pointed it out to me.

38. The first cartulary is Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, Sant'Angelo in Pescheria, I, 1. For a drawing of another secondary church in the neighborhood, San Nicola in Carcere, only some forty years later, and for a discussion of the conflation of ancient memories and contemporary life, see Theodor E.

Synan, The Popes and the Jews in the Middle Ages (New York, 1967).

For a recent discussion of the Cavallinis in Santa Maria, see John White, Art and Architecture in Italy: 1250-1400 (Baltimore, 1966), 97-99. My discussion of the Cavallini Nativity is completely dependent upon Paul Hetherington, "The Mosaics of Pietro Cavallini in Santa Maria in Trastevere," Journal of the Warburg and Courtauld Institutes, XXXIII (1970), 84-106, quoted words on 97, particularly also 88, 95; one need not completely agree with the argument of this essay to find it helpful. For excellent illustrations of Cavallini's work, see Pietro Toesca, Pietro Cavallini (Milan, 1959). The phrase ''lu baron san Piero" comes from a delightful Orvieto Corpus Christi play, which has been dated c. 1325-1330 by Andrea Lazzarini and which argues the efficacy of the relics of the miracle of Bolsena; the phrase comes from line 3, the penance assigned to a doubting priest by his confessor: "che vada a Roma a lu baron san Piero"; it is repeated later at lines 44-45 when the returning priest tells an inn-keeper of his stay in Rome:

a San Gianni beato
ed a San Polu ed al baron San Piero;

the play is to be found in Sacre Rappresentazioni per le fraternite d'Orvieto nel cod. Vittorio Emanuele 528, Bollettino della r. deputazione di storia patria per l'Umbria, Appendice 5 (Perugia, 1916), 77-83, no. XXIV; Lazzarini's date is in his Il Miracolo di Bolsena (Rome, 1952), 33; Carroll Winslow Brentano pointed out these references to me.

65. Saba Malaspina, Historia, cols. 815, 842. it seems to me that Kantorowicz, in a wonderfully surprising turn, rather plays down Corradino's procession (Ernst Kantorowicz, Frederick the Second [New York, 1957], 675-676), although his explanation for the brilliant reception is neither played down nor convincing.

Since I wrote this paragraph, I have watched both Professor Richard Krautheimer of New York University and Professor Ronald Malmstrom of Williams College dating brick walls with tape measures, and I would now speak less negatively. I have also read Professor Ignazio Baldelli, sensitively working with the date of charms, in Medioevo volgare da Montecassino all'Umbria (Bari, 1971), vii-xiii, 93-110 (particularly 98, 99), 126-127.

For a serious impression of learning and teaching at the curia, one should see Richard Mather's University of California Ph.D. dissertation on Matthew of Acquasparta now in process of publication by the German Institute in Rome; for libraries, see Mather, "The Codicil of Cardinal Comes of Casate and the Libraries of Thirteenth-century Cardinals," Traditio, XX (1964), 319-350, particularly 321; also 327 for the ranking of curial Latinists in the register of Urban IV. For very recent work on cardinals' libraries, see Agostino Paravicini Bagliani, "Le biblioteche dei cardinali Pietro Peregrosso (inline image 1295) e Pietro Colonna inline image 1326)," Zeitschrift für schweizerische Kirchengeschichte, LXIV (1970), 104-139. See Re, Statuti, 244-246, for the attempt to reestablish the studium and professors in Trastevere.

For cardinals' households, in this connection, see Agostino Paravicini Bagliani, "Gregorio da Napoli, biografo di Urbano IV," Römische Historische Mitteilungen, XI (1969), 59-78, especially 69, and the same author's Cardinali di curia, throughout, but for variety within households particularly I, 158, and for chapel and chaplains, II, 478-495; for papal chaplains, see Reinhard Elize, "Die päpstliche Kapelle im 12. und 13.

For a specific man of learning, see Paravicini's "Un matematico nella corte papale del secolo XIII: Campano da Novara (inline image 1296),'' Rivista di storia della chiesa in Italia, XXVII (1973), 1-32.

75. Gregorovius, History, V, 655-666. For a general statement about Byzantine influence, see Ernst Kitzinger, "The Byzantine Contribution to Western Art of the Twelfth and Thirteenth Centuries," Dumbarton Oaks Papers, XX (1966), 25-47, and particularly 45 for "the deliberate effort to revive the ancient native heritage . . . in Rome . . . [where] Torriti 'recreated' in the apse of S. Maria Maggiore an early Christian type of mosaic. . . ." On late thirteenth-century classicism and on Tre Fontane, see an important article by Carlo Bertelli, "L'Enciclopedia delle Tre Fontane," Paragone, N.S., XX, no. 235, Arte (1969), 24-49, and see also the same author's "Opus Romanum," in the forthcoming collection of essays to be presented to Otto Pächt and published in Kunsthistorische Forschungen . For a rich miscellany of small plates illustrating Roman art at the end of the thirteenth century, see Antonio Muñoz, Roma di Dante (Milan and Rome, 1921).

76. It seems to me that all older general work on art in late thirteenth-century Rome is now superseded by Julian Gardner's unfortunately unpublished London Ph.D. thesis, "The Influence of Popes' and Cardinals' Patronage on the Introduction of the Gothic Style into Rome and the Surrounding Area, 1254-1305." The passages quoted here are from pages 103 and 145, but the work is valuable for every aspect of artistic activity and patronage considered here. A suggestion of the value of the total work can be gotten from one of its details published by the author as "The Capocci Tabernacle in S. Maria Maggiore," Papers of the British School at Rome, XXXVIII (1970), 220-230, and much more from his full very recent article, "Pope Nicholas IV and the decoration of Santa Maria Maggiore" in Zeitschrift für Kunstgeschichte (1973), which among much else includes interesting references to and plates from Nicholas III's Vatican palace. Roman mosaics have recently been cataloged and illustrated in Guglielmo Matthiae, Mosaici medioevali delle chiese di Roma (Rome, 1967): for Torriti at Santa Maria Maggiore, see I, 355-366 (dating, 355); for Cavallini at Santa Maria in Trastevere, see I, 367-368; for Rusuti at Santa Maria Maggiore, see I, 381-384; plates are in II. For Torriti, Cavallini, and Arnolfo, see White, Art and Architecture, 100, 97-99, 55, 61-63; see also Hetherington, "The Mosaics of Pietro Cavallini"; Bertelli, "L'Enciclopedia," 35-36; the "Rusuti" dates are readjusted by Gardner, ''The Influence," 244-250, and "Pope Nicholas IV," 28-33. Very recent work on Arnolfo's Roman period is to be found in an essay by Joachim Poeschke, ''Betrachtung der römischen Werke des Arnolfo di Cambio," Römische Quartalschrift, LXVII (1972), 175-211, plates 8-24. See too Matthiae's Pittura Romana del Medioevo, II (Rome, 1966). For illustrations of the Tre Fontane "Coronation of the Virgin" and "Nativity," which are very closely related to the Torriti mosaics at Santa Maria Maggiore and which are still in clausura , see Restauri della Soprintendenza alle gallerie e alle opere d'arte medioevali e moderne per il Lazio (1970-1971) (Rome, 1972), plate 9. Figures closely related to the Tre Fontane fisherman are to be found at San Lorenzo fuori le mura, on the Pisano Fontana Maggiore (a February panel) at Perugia, and in copies after Giotto's Navicella, for example.

77. Gregorovius, History, V, 641; for a recent discussion of the tombs, see Mather, "The Codicil of Cardinal Comes," 324. The most fascinating aspect of the redating of the bronze Saint Peter, which has often been considered late antique, is its chemical analysis, for which see the two connected essays of Mario Salmi, "Il problema della statua bronzea di S. Pietro nella Basilica Vaticana," and of Bruno Bearzi, "Esame tecnologico e metallurgico della statua di S. Pietro," Commentari, XI (1960) 22-32; Salmi speaks of the "tono antichizzante" of the period, 26. It is perhaps misleading to imply that the effigy of Surdi presses itself upon the viewer, since the church in which it is preserved, Santa Balbina, has been closed pending another restoration for more than a decade; for its inscription see Forcella, Iscrizioni, 331, no. 1070.

78. For recent careful dating in a work not specifically devoted to this period, see Richard Krautheimer, Corpus Basilicarum Christianarum Romae (English edition, Vatican City, 1959), for example, II, 13, 42, 46, 183, 210, 276, 280; for bridges and gates, see Cecchelli, 199, 203; for an interestingly integrated guidebook to Christian Rome (to which Professor Stephan Kuttner drew my attention), see Noële Maurice-Denis and Robert Boulet, Romée (Paris: Desclée de Brouwer, 1963); for a guide to medieval remains in Rome, see Léon Homo, Rome médiévale, 476-1420 (Paris, 1934), appendix, 291-323, "Les vestiges de la Rome medievale." Mr. Ronald Malmstrom's forthcoming work on thirteenth-century Aracoeli should change the look of this whole field. For the date of destruction of a Corso arch, together with an eleventh-century church, see C. Bertelli and C. Galassi Paluzzi, S. Maria in Via Lata, I (Rome, 1971), 13.

79. I have chosen the most common and likely, but not the only, translation of spetiarius , which could also mean a piecer in the cloth trade or a dealer in specie among the moneyers. For drawings of Matteo's and Giovanni's tombs see Muñoz, Roma, 381.

Chapter II The Ideal City

1. See, for example, R. H. Hilton, A Medieval Society (Letchworth, New York, 1966), 7. For a description of the way in which thirteenth-century news was carried, see C. R. Cheney, "Gervase, Abbot of Prémontré," 39-40.

2. For the altar of the apostles, see The Chronicle of Bury St. Edmunds, 1212-1301, ed. Antonia Gransden (London, Edinburgh, 1964), 82. For Matthew's maps and plans, see Richard Vaughan, Matthew Paris (Cambridge, 1958), 235-250, particularly 247-248.

3. The reader will find parts of two books particularly helpful for the matter of this chapter, the first being the old standard work, the second a recent, brilliant summary and analysis: Arturo Graf, Roma nella memoria e nelle immaginazioni del medio evo, I (Turin, 1882), "I tesori di Roma," 152-181; Charles Till Davis, Dante and the Idea of Rome (Oxford, 1957), particularly 1-22, 33-34.

4. I am following the stories in Graf, particularly from the Gesta Romanorum , supplemented with William of Malmesbury in the Gesta Regum: Graf, 161-164. For the notarial date, see Rome, Archivio di stato, archivio del Collegio de' Notari Capitolini, vol. 1236, fos. 31 v -32.

5. Codice topografico, III, 143-167: "Magistri Gregorii de mirabilibus urbis Romae," 145-147. This edition of the topographical texts of Rome, by Roberto Valentini and Giuseppe Zucchetti, includes a set of elaborate notes identigying objects and relating texts. The introductions attempt to survey earlier discussions of the texts and to date them. See too M. R. James, "Magister Gregorius de Mirabilibus Urbis Romae," English Historical Review, XXXII (1917), 531-554.

6. Codice topografico, III, 17-65: "La più antica redazione dei Mirabilia, " 32-33. The oldest redaction was put together in its present form and written in existing manuscripts before the end of the twelfth century. But it was probably composed, its parts assembled, by about 1140 at the latest.

7. Codice topografico, III, 40-42. See too Joseph van der Straeten, "Les Chaines de S. Pierre," Analecta Bollandiana, XC (1972), 413-424.

8. Codice topografico, III, 34-35; the vernacular is in Codice topografico III, 116-136: "Le Miracole de Roma," 126-127. Readers may be more familiar with the slightly later version of this and other Roman stories in the Legenda aurea .

For the names Enea and Ottaviano, see, for example, "Regesto del Monastero di San Silvestro in Capite," ASRSP , XXII (1899), 529-531, nos. 70, 71, and Rome, Archivio di stato, San Silvestro, 69, 70.

16. A convenient source for imperial attitudes to Rome is Eugenio Dupré Theseider, Idea imperiale di Roma nella tradizione del medioevo (Milan, n.d.), particularly, in the introduction, pages 49-76 and, in the documents, for Frederick II, 173-196. On Frederick in general, one should read Ernst Kantorowicz, Frederick the Second , trans. E. O. Lorimer (New York, 1957), a magnificent book no matter how much one disagrees with it.

18. Kantorowicz, Frederick , 437-438, 448-450 (quotation 448-449). See also Paolo Brezzi, Roma e l'Impero medioevale (Bologna, 1947), 427-440, particularly plate XVII facing 432.

19. Kantorowicz, Frederick , 676; for the importance of an Italian city's carroccio (including Cremona's which was called "Bertha"), see Waley, The Italian City-Republics , (New York, Toronto, 1969) 138-140.

20. Kantorowicz, Frederick , 438 (for the shades), 451-452 (for the fiefs).

21. For Peter and Paul, see Nicholas III's Senatorial statute (Theiner, Codex diplomaticus , I, 216-218, no. 371, or Les Registres de Nicolas III , ed. Jules Gay (Paris, 1898), 106) or the urban statutes (Re, Statuti , 3). For the use of propaganda, see G. Ladner, "I Mosaici e gli affreschi ecclesiastico-politici nell'antico palazzo Lateranense," Rivista di ar cheologia cristiana , XII (1935), 265-292. For Innocent's sermon, see Opera omnia , IV, cols. 481-484, particularly cols. 481 and 484. For Nicholas, see Theiner and Gay, as above.

22. The forthcoming work of Charles Till Davis on Roman republicanism and late thirteenth-century thought and papal politics will, I think, drastically change our whole notion of the period; it will particularly affect our understanding of Nicholas III, who seems increasingly to have been a man, a Roman, and a ruler of the first importance. Professor Davis's first pertinent essay is called "Ptolemy of Lucca and Roman Patriotism"; it should be published shortly. For republicanism, see also Beryl Smalley, "Sallust in the Middle Ages," Classical Influences on European Culture , ed. R. R. Bolgar (Cambridge, 1971), 165-194. For the capitol as a wonder of the world, see H. Omont, "Les sept merveilles du monde au moyen âge," Bibliothèque de l'école des chartes , XLIII (1882), 40-59, 431-432, and particularly 47 for the sentence: ''Primum miraculum est Capitolium Rome que totius mundi civitatum civitas est.'' On the movement of Jerusalem to Rome, see a work focusing on the seventeenth century but reaching back into the past: Irving Lavin, Bernini and the Crossing of Saint Peter's , College Art Association of America (New York, 1968), perhaps particularly 33-35 on "the process of what might be called 'topographical transfusion.'" Dante speaks of the Veronica in the Paradiso , XXXI, 204-206. There are good examples of earlier medieval (for example, ninth-century) pilgrims' cases for the relic earth of the Holy Land in the first room of the old Vatican galleries of Christian antiquities between the Sistine Chapel and the Library. On another face of Christ in Rome in the later thirteenth century, the Mandylion, see Carlo Bertelli, "Storia e vicende dell'Immagine Edessena," Paragone , N.S. XXXVII, no. 217--Arte (1968), 3-37.

23. See G. Falco, "Il catalogo di Torino," ASRSP , XXXII (1909), 411-443, discussed in Robert Brentano, Two Churches (Princeton, 1968), 232.

25. For the feast of the snows, see van Dijk and Walker, The Origins of the Roman Liturgy , 376-377. For the indulgences, see G. Ferri, "Le carte dell' archivio Liberiano dal secolo X al XV," ASRSP , XXVII (1904), 145-202, 441-459, XXVIII (1905), 23-39, XXX (1907), 119-168, XXX, 120-121, of which the originals are in the Vatican library.

26. The poem is quoted by Graf, Roma , I, 42, and the pilgrims' hymn, Graf, 57. The whole first two chapters of Graf are pertinent (1-77). The theme of the foreigner's view of Rome is treated at some length in the first chapter of Brentano, Two Churches; see also John A. Yunck, "Economic Conservatism, Papal Finance and the Medieval Satires on Rome," Mediaeval Studies , XXIII (1961), 334-351, and George B. Parks, The English Traveller to Italy , I (Palo Alto, 1954); all give abundant references. For Rome from the point of view of Spain and the Spanish see Peter Linehan, The Spanish Church and the Papacy in the Thirteenth Century (Cambridge, 1971), 251-255.

For the distance controlled by medieval weapons, see for example Lynn White, Medieval Technology and Social Change (Oxford, 1962), 103; Milton Lewine has in preparation a work on the church of the Madonna dei Monti in Rome which will explore the problem of weapons and distances between towers in connection with a Suburra tower.

40. The change from primitive representative assembly to one or two nobles is discussed with misleading overemphasis by Boüard, Le régime, 135-139, particularly 136, because of his romantic view of the earlier assembly.

41. See Gregorovius, History, V, 295-296; Halphen, Etudes, 64. In thirteenth-century Rieti, special councils seem, at least sometimes, to have been committees of general and special councils, as in a 1284 example recorded in Rieti, Archivio capitolare (communal collection), II.E.4.

The quick acceleration of self-conscious nobility is suggested by one of the documents which are connected with the Sant'Eustachio family and which are now preserved in the capitular archives at Rieti; it is Rieti, Archivio capitolare (communal collection), III.A.I (from 1308). It is a variously interesting document: One of its Sant'Eustachios is also a canon of the church of Sant'Eustachio; two of its witnesses are the chamberlain of the "advocates and judges" and the rector of the "judges and advocates" of the City (Rome).

Chapter IV The Popes

1. Carroll Winslow Brentano has informed me that Urban IV also was considered to be a saint both in Perugia and Troyes. The best modern introductions to the papal chancery for this period are, in my opinion, Peter Herde, Beiträge zum päpstlichen Kanzlei- und Urkundenwesen im 13. Jahrbundert, 2nd ed. (Kallmünz, 1967), and the incisive introduction to C. R. and Mary G. Cheney, The Letters of Pope Innocent III (1198-1216) (Oxford, 1967), particularly, xi-xviii. They should be supplemented with one of the excellent editions of papal registers prepared by the French Schools of Athens and Rome, for example, Les Registres d'Innocent IV, ed. Elie Berger (Paris, 1884-1911), or Les Registres de Boniface VIII, ed. Georges Digard, Maurice Faucon, Antoine Thomas, and Robert Fawtier (Paris, 1907-1939), and particularly the essay by Fawtier in vol. IV. One should now also see O. Hageneder and A. Haidacher, Die Register Innocenz' III [Publikationen der Abteilung für historische Studien des österreichischen Kulturinstituts in Rom. Quellen] I (1964). The best general introduction to the history of the papacy is probably Johannes Haller, Das Papsttum (Urach, 1950, Stuttgart, 1953). A much quicker introduction is available in Geoffrey Barraclough's recent and remarkable, The Medieval Papacy (London and New York, 1968). A serious discussion of a chronological segment of papal bibliography exists in Robert E. McNally's essay, "The History of the Medieval Papacy: a Survey of Research, 1954-1959," Theological Studies, XXI (1960), 92-132. Although Daniel Waley's The Papal State in the Thirteenth Century is not specifically a history of the popes, it is very revealing of them. English readers will find Horace K. Mann, The Lives of the Popes in the Middle Ages (London, 1902-1932), helpful and informative. The Italia Pontificia volumes edited by Paul Kehr and Walther Holtzmann, although they purportedly deal with a period prior to that of this book, are still, like the companion volumes for other countries, an invaluable introduction not only to the products of the papal curia but also to the archives in which they may be found.

2. For a convenient guide to the cardinalate, see Conrad Eubel, Hierarchia catholica medii aevi, I (Münster, 1913), 3-13, particularly, here, 9-10. For the meaning and history of the dignity, see Stephan Kuttner, "Cardinalis: the History of a Canonical Concept," Traditio, III (1945), 129-214. See too Hans-Walter Klewitz, Reformpapsttum und Kardinalkolleg (Darmstadt, 1957) and Paravicini, Cardinali di curia, with its bibliography.

3. For Boniface, see T. S. R. Boase, Boniface VIII (London, 1933). This seems to me an insufficiently valued book, perhaps because it stresses neither the sort of specifically archival history nor the sort of legal learning which have been popular among scholars in recent years. It is a perceptive study in total personality, and as such, I now think, superior to all other biographies of thirteenth-century popes, although these include some major works like Achille Luchaire, Innocent III (Paris, 1904-1908). Thirteenth-century popes can now best be looked at, although seldom if ever in actual portrait likeness, in Gerhart Ladner, Die Papstbildnisse des Altertums und des Mittelalters, II: von Innozenz II zu Benedikt XI (Vatican City, 1970), which is vol. IV, ser. II of the Monumenti di antichità cristiana published by the Pontificio istituto di archeologia cristiana.

Although the Septizonium's remaining ruins were destroyed during the pontificate of Sixtus v (1585-1590), it can still be seen in Renaissance drawings; see for example in Il Paesaggio nel disegno europeo del XVI secolo, Mostra all'Accademia di Francia, Villa Medici, 1972-1973 (Rome, 1972), 158-161, nos. 108, 109 by Marten van Heemskerck.

38. For a directly opposite point of view, see Leonard E. Boyle, "An Ambry of 1299 at San Clemente, Rome," Mediaeval Studies, XXVI (1964), 345, where Father Boyle finds the accusations connected with the trials "ludicrous and unlikely." This in an essay rich in complex evidence about Boniface, particularly concerning his devotion to the Eucharist and his halo (332, 343-346). The public controversy about the trial has been a long one; a first step into it could be made through Antonio Corvi, Il processo di Bonifazio VIII. Studio critico (Rome, 1948). For Boniface's headwear (discussed in Boyle), see also Gerhart Ladner, ''Die Statue Bonifaz' VIII in der Lateranbasilika und die Entstehung der dreifach gekrönten Tiara," Römische Quartalschrift, XLII (1934), 35-69.

62. "Barbarously involved" is from Gregorovius (V, 630) and springs from the irritation anyone must feel as he tries to read Stefaneschi's sort of verse in which, as Father Boyle has written very nicely, "sometimes, indeed, words are switched around like so many checkers, but without any regard to position or sense, for the sake of his not always happy hexameters" ("An Ambry of 1299," 339). For a very sympathetic treatment of Stefaneschi, see Arsenio Frugoni, "Il Cardinale Jacopo Stefaneschi, Biografo di Celestino v,'' Celestiniana (Rome, 1954), 69-124.

6. Oliger, 152-153, 127; on the Veronica see, for example, Peter Brieger, English Art, 1216-1307 (Oxford, 1957), 137, Brentano, Two Churches, 56-57, and Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, Archivio di San Pietro, V, 10, "85" (a 1272 letter of Gregory X ordering the canons to allow a private viewing by a countess and her entourage, a letter called a licentia ostendendi vultum sanctum ); also on the Veronica, see Arsenio Frugoni, "Il Giubileo di Bonifacio VIII," Bullettino dell'Istituto storico italiano, LXXII (1950), 1-121, 23. The reference to Altruda's visits ad limina, of course, suggests the familiar devotion to the apostles Peter and Paul, but the description of Altruda's behavior, the prolixitas, and the varying time, surely seems to refer to a more sprawling and varying visitation of relics and churches, and not even just the addition of San Lorenzo: compare de Angelis, L'Ospedale di Santo Spirito, I, 101, 63. See André Vauchez, "Sainteté laïque au XIII e siècle: La vie du bienheureux Facio de Crémone," Mélanges de l'école française de Rome, LXXXIV (1972), 13-53, particularly 39 for Facio's eighteen visits to the Limina apostolorum Petri et Pauli et aliorum sanctorum.

In general, see Oliger's introduction, and particularly 80-82, but for the name of Margherita's mother and for her genealogy, see Cesare de Cupis, Regesto, I, 45-51 (Rome, Vallicelliana, Archivio storico capitolino, Archivio Orsini, II.A.I.20), the will of the older Margherita's father, Giovanni Gaetani (or Giangaetano) di Orso di Bobone di Pietro, from 1232.

For a reward to a loyal family, see Giacomo's receiving Bartolomeo de Rocca, a canon of Rieti, as a member of his consortium of chaplains in 1308--moved, he says, by the continued loyalty of Bartolomeo's relatives: Rieti, archivio capitolare, VII.A.4. See Regestum Clementis Papae V (Rome, 1886), 323-324, no. 3535, for Clement's granting Giacomo the care of San Lorenzo in Lucina, from which his (Giacomo's) letter is dated.

Moorman, " Archivum Franciscanum Historicum, XXXIX (1946), 3-37; a reassembled Francis, after criticism, is presented in the first chapter of Moorman's history, and a most recent and more optimistic study of some of the most important sources exists in the introduction to Rosalind Brooke, The Writings of Leo, Rufino and Angelo.

13. Brooke, 212-215. The theme of Francis as romantic is gracefully developed in A. G. Little, "The Seventh Centenary of St. Francis of Assisi (1226-1926)," Franciscan Papers, Lists and Documents (Manchester, 1943), 1-150; for the round table and Roland quotations, see Brooke, 212-213, 214-215; the Lancelot who is suggested here is a character, of course, from the world of R. W. southern, The Making of the Middle Ages (London, 1953).

14. Lester K. Little has been much concerned with the theme of Franciscan poverty in a newly moneyed society; he is in process of presenting his conclusions in a series of publications, the first of which is Lester K.

26. For examples of these names, see San Silvestro in Capite, 85(82), 77(75), 92(88), 91(87). The following pages are so filled with references to San Silvestro documents that the repetition of even a normally abbreviated proper reference to them would become tedious to the eye, particularly because there is a double reference to most documents. Most of the documents are edited in V. Federici, "Regesto del monastero di San Silvestro in Capite," ASRSP, XXII (1899), 213-300, 489-538, XXIII (1900), 67-128, 411-447. Most of their originals exist in Rome, Archivio di stato, San Silvestro in Capite. In the references employed here (henceforth cited as San Silvestro), numbers not in parentheses refer to the numbers of the documents in Federici's edition (without reference to volume or page); numbers within parentheses refer to the numbers of documents within the fond San Silvestro in Capite in the Archivio di stato.

45. San Silvestro, 107(104), 147(141); the feast of Saint John now celebrated by San Silvestro is the appropriate one of the decollatio (August 29), but I think that the documents' repeated talk of Saint John in the Summertime means not this feast but rather the great general feast of the Nativity of Saint John (June 24).

The power of San Giacomo to attract burials is witnessed by the recorded burial there of a fourteenth-century canon of Saint Bartholomew's on the Island; both it and the fourteenth-century burial of a miller call attention to San Giacomo's site by the river; for these burials, see Forcella, Inscrizioni , VI, 324, nos. 1063, 1065.

53. The quotation "only for recounting" refers to Francis's talk of those who gain credit "only for recounting" the deeds of Charles, Roland, and Oliver, and his comparison of them with "us" who tell stories of the saints' wonders: Brooke, Scripta, 214-215; the second Franciscan reference is to the friar's talk of Francis's selling of his sackcloth to the lord and the multi baldaquini et panni de serico ("many rich brocades and silken cloths") which would later cover his body: Brooke, Scripta, 260-263.

54. Ilaria Toesca, Una croce dipinta romana (Rome, 1966), who should not, however, be held responsible for the suggestions about the identity of the anonymous saints. In connection with this cross and its piety one might also look at the same author's "Opere d'Arte del territorio di Tivoli restaurate dalla Soprintendenza alle gallerie," Atti e Memorie, XLII (1969), 197-202. For the Bible which Nicholas III gave to Aracoeli, see Il libro della Bibbia (Vatican City, 1972), 41, no. 77; it is Vat. lat. 7797.

55. For the evocative description of Constantius II's entry into Rome, taken from Ammianus, see Ernst H. Kantorowicz, Laudes Regiae (Berkeley, 1958), 66.

56. Gregorovius, History, V, 466. Ludovico Frati, Libro di cucina del secolo XIV (Livorno, 1989), 15, for the fritata recipe; I do not have evidence for its use in thirteenth-century Rome itself, but mean here to suggest the specific act of eating a specific dish.

57. One should think of the little Veronica in connection with surviving souvenirs from other centers, like those from Canterbury preserved at the Guildhall in London, or those still available, like the little pens from Loreto, through whose viscous liquid the holy house sails.
