Outline of Final Research Achievements

In Florence and Rome during the urban expansion period of modern Italy, villa buildings were constructed in the residential area due to the urban remodeling and urban expansion plan at the time of the transition of the capital. This was done based on such conventional residential forms as Palazzo and Villas. For this study, a field survey was conducted and the historical materials and documents related to this construction were collected and analyzed. As a result, it became possible to identify the type and style of each individual residence, the district formation as a group of residences, and the conversion and transformation of existing land and buildings.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究は、近代化における都市拡張においてヴィラとパラッツォいう既存の建築形態と既存の土地利用状況の変化に着目し、歴史的な都市・建築の近代化という視点をもっていることと、イギリスやフランスなどの近代化の先進技術を導入した国として日本との比較対象として有用となり得る点で、学術的・社会的意義があると考える。
