The identity of places of worship is one of the most difficult problems faced by religious architecture at the start of this new millennium. Contemporary globalising experiences demand, peremptorily, a reflection, both conceptual and situational, on the origin of objects, people and institutions. Nevertheless, the chance of these migration flows annihilating already-existing religious identities is perceived as a problem. This problem is directly linked to the survival of architecture as a s.

Il volume offre un catalogo inedito di 35 chiese siriane del IV secolo. Un patrimonio che testimonia la prima e capillare diffusione del cristianesimo in Siria, e il contributo fondamentale di Costantino il Grande e del suo celebre Editto (313). Da allora, in queste regioni fu tutto un fiorire di chiese: alcune derivarono dalla conversione di templi pagani, ma per la maggior parte si trattò di fondazioni ex novo, concepite per soddisfare le nuove esigenze di culto. Oggi, sparsi attraverso tutto il territorio siriano, si contano centinaia di resti di edifici risalenti ai primi secoli dell’era cristiana, sorprendentemente incustoditi, abbandonati alle ingiurie del tempo e all’azione degli uomini. Si tratta di rovine poco studiate, spesso addirittura sconosciute, sicuramente mai catalogate con sistematicità. Il merito di questo volume degli archeologi francescani R. Fernández e P. Castellana (scomparso durante la sua lavorazione), oltre a offrire un chiaro inquadramento storico introduttivo sulle origini e la diffusione del cristianesimo in terra siriana, consiste proprio nel fornire, per ciascuna delle chiese prese in esame, una scheda dettagliata, che include: la storia, la pianta, la descrizione delle rimanenze in situ, gli eventuali studi precedenti e una bibliografia fondamentale. Il tutto corredato da un ingente apparato iconografico, per lo più inedito.
