摘要
This essay focuses on the Florentine baptistery of San Giovanni as a piece of urban architecture, religious and civic, as it was perceived in the fourteenth century: it was a presence in the texts, visual arts, and public festivities of the time. The essay demonstrates that the baptistery was a central element in shaping the image of Florence as the New Jerusalem and reveals the degree to which the chronicler Giovanni Villain (ca. 1275-1348) promoted this image. The essay also offers an original analysis of the architectural associations recorded by pilgrims to the Holy Land.
