La circostanza di una fondazione urbana nuova, costituita dall’ampliamento o quasi dal raddoppio di un centro urbano esistente, emerge con chiarezza dall’osservazione della cartografia storica e della struttura catastale dell’abitato di Ales, in provincia di Oristano. In questo studio l’analisi storico-urbanistica ha indirizzato la successiva ricerca sul piano storico e documentario, fino a far emergere con chiarezza la effettiva differenza strutturale di due settori urbani e delinearne sia le matrici formali che gli ambiti di appartenenza culturale. A fronte di un nucleo urbano originario, i cui caratteri sono riferibili ad alcuni ambiti medievali regionali, la porzione urbana nuova appare improntata sui caratteri essenziali delle azioni urbanistiche denominate di tipo farnesiano. Esse sono oggetto di ricerca da anni: rilevate in ambito romano, estesamente rispetto allo Stato pontificio e alle aree di influenza della potente famiglia romana dei Farnese, in particolare nel XVI secolo, non sono state ancora studiate in aree esterne ai loro possessi. In questo studio emergono le connessioni storiche e politiche tra la famiglia sarda dei Carroç e il papato romano, le linee di progettazione di una strada nuova, con nuovi lotti ai lati e con un edificio disposto sul fondale prospettico, i riferimenti adottati per il rinnovamento dell’architettura e dell’urbanistica della sede del loro nuovo vescovado di Ales.

Abstract
On the Trail of Farnesian Urbanism in Ales (Oristano), a New Bishopric of the Early Sixteenth Century The circumstance of a new urban foundation, constituted by the extension or almost the doubling of an existing urban center, clearly emerges from the observation of the historical cartography and the cadastral zoning of the town of Ales, in the province of Oristano. In this study, the historical urban planning analysis led to a subsequent research on historical and documentary evidence, bringing out the details of the actual structural difference of two urban sectors and delineating their formal matrices and their areas of cultural belonging. Compared with the original urban nucleus, whose features are related to regional medieval contexts, the new urban area appears to be based on the essential features of the urban actions known as the Farnesian type. They have been studied for many years: found in Rome, extensively present in the Papal State and in the areas of influence of the powerful Farnese Roman family, particularly in the sixteenth century, they have not been found in areas outside their estates, until now. This study brings to light the historical and political connections between the Carroç Sardinian family and the Roman papacy, the design lines of a new street, with new lots on the sides and with a building on the perspective backdrop, and also the references adopted for the renovation of the architecture and urbanism of the headquarters of their new bishopric in Ales.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
