• Resumen

  • The area of the compound of the Forts of Rome may be interpreted as the threshold, while the dry moat which encloses them as a limit. Together they afford one the opportunity to explore the functional and symbolic relationships which they establish with the surrounding urban areas. The map of the Ager Romanus, those of the IGM (Military Geographic Institute) since 1885, and the satellite images, highlight the hiatus between how the Forts were represented cartographically and the difficulty in how they are perceived, and narrate the changes that have taken place in the spatial, dimensional, and volumetric relationships they have progressively established with their immediate surroundings. The aim of the research is to investigate, recognize, and represent, via an analysis of the archival documentation and drawings as an aid, the connotative and qualitative elements of the Forts of Rome, of the structures, and of the lands that constitute an indivisible unity of architecture and landscape to be restored and promoted in restoration and re-utilization projects.
