The care for the preservation of the holy bodies in the Basilica of St. Ambrose and the care for the relics in Pavia follow the same principles that govern modern monument restoration in Italy. These are emblematic cases of both religious and civic memory: they refer to the historical path that, from the original devotion to saints at churches outside the city walls, led to the burial of the dead within cities in the Middle Ages, and eventually to the survival
of the territorial phenomenon of the Corpi Santi, which was abolished at the end of the 19th century, in rural areas immediately outside the walls, distinct from the surrounding countryside. After being elevated to independent municipalities by the Austrian government, the Corpi Santi disappeared with their administrative annexation to the respective cities: in Milan in 1873, and in Pavia in 1883. The two urban centers suddenly became much larger. The process set in motion can be considered a significant document of the concurrent emergence of the complex polarization between civic and religious demands. keywordsHoly bodies, Modern age, Milan, Pavia.Biografia dell'autoreGià Politecnico di Milano – maria.crippa@polimi.it |
