The article addresses the development of three episcopal complexes in Northern Italy: at Aquileia, Milan and Parenzo-Porec, leaving aside the very special case of Ravenna. Episcopal complexes (meaning the monumental headquarters of the bishop) initially centred on the cathedral and evidence for residence is slight in contrast, reflecting perhaps that the influence of bishops derived primarily from liturgy and their ecclesiastical status. Nevertheless, during the 5th and 6th c. A.D. monumental episcopal residences develop, that seem to reflect the rising social and political status of bishops in wider society.

Abstract
The article addresses the development of three episcopal complexes in Northern Italy: at Aquileia, Milan and Parenzo-Porec, leaving aside the very special case of Ravenna. Episcopal complexes (meaning the monumental headquarters of the bishop) initially centred on the cathedral and evidence for residence is slight in contrast, reflecting perhaps that the influence of bishops derived primarily from liturgy and their ecclesiastical status. Nevertheless, during the 5th and 6th c. A.D. monumental episcopal residences develop, that seem to reflect the rising social and political status of bishops in wider society.File in questo prodotto:
