My speech discusses the formation in the early seventeenth century of two urban lots in Trastevere. The pontificate of Paul V was remarkably attentive to the urbanization of this district. The two examined lots gravitate both in the area of influence of the basilica of Santa Maria in Trastevere: the first, placed at the base of the Janiculum hill, was under the direct domain of the basilica and became the monastery of Santa Maria dei Sette Dolori; the second, at the entrance of the new via di S. Francesco a Ripa, includes a palace identified as the first roman residence of Cassiano del Pozzo later enlarged and partially transformed into a monastic building. With the aid of historical maps and unpublished archival written and graphic documents, I retrace the history of the transformations of the two lots which turned into complexes of monumental interest.

Abstract
My speech discusses the formation in the early seventeenth century of two urban lots in Trastevere. The pontificate of Paul V was remarkably attentive to the urbanization of this district. The two examined lots gravitate both in the area of influence of the basilica of Santa Maria in Trastevere: the first, placed at the base of the Janiculum hill, was under the direct domain of the basilica and became the monastery of Santa Maria dei Sette Dolori; the second, at the entrance of the new via di S. Francesco a Ripa, includes a palace identified as the first roman residence of Cassiano del Pozzo later enlarged and partially transformed into a monastic building. With the aid of historical maps and unpublished archival written and graphic documents, I retrace the history of the transformations of the two lots which turned into complexes of monumental interest.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
