Alcune note sull'edilizia civile a Castel di Cagliari fra Trecento e Quattrocento

Abstract

In the beginning of XIV century Castel di Cagliari had obtained a considerable urbanistic development characterised by the diffusion of building models typically Italian. The growing process had a sudden slowing down according to some problems born after the Catalan conquest. Lost the resources for a further spread, the town maintained substantially its aspect until the end of the fourteenth-century.
In the XV century a slow economic recovery favoured the building spread of the adjoining districts, where we can notice many restoration interventions of the existent structures. This growing period has been characterised by an adaptation of the building models, preceding the gothic style.
Several documents permitted to enlighten on some aspect of the subject and to identify the kind of interventions made on the houses of Castel di Cagliari in the Late Middle Age.
