"This study takes the transformations of the monuments of Ravenna as a starting point to explore the city's attitude towards its religious cultural heritage throughout the centuries. Together with the local historiographical sources, dating from Medieval and Early Modern times, they provide a picture of the manner in which Ravenna experienced, appropriated and imagined its past ... By considering Early Christian Ravenna from the context of cultural memory, involving both material and written sources, new insights are yielded on a frequently researched subject."--Page 4 of cover.
