Di papa in papa. Recupero e trasmissione di modelli da Pasquale I (817-824) a Pasquale II (1099-1118)

This paper intends to investigate images, places and strategies of the work of Popes Paschal I and Paschal II, in a hitherto unexplored handover that deeply marked the city of medieval Rome. The relationship between these two popes prompts a reconsideration of some of the assumptions of the debated renovatio ecclesiae primitivae formae of the 11th and 12th centuries, placing the popes of the Carolingian age among the main interlocutors in the process of reappropriating the decorum by the reformed church of the decorum of the Early church undertaken by the Reformed church.
