The first aim of the project is to find structures, urban development and changes in the cities which are directly connected to Claudius. The second goal is a reflection on planning issues and strategies adopted by the emperor. In particular It was conducted a comprehensive examination of new buildings or additions to prior ones (with statues for example) and the underlying intentions as well as how and in which way the prototypes in Italy influenced the construction in the provinces. The last aim is connected to Venturi’s work who deals with his activities in Italy and in particular at Rome and Ravenna. I retrieve if the trends found by Venturi are applicable also in the provinces and I try to find new ones as well which can explain his political actions. date: 2019 id_scheme: DOI id_number: 10.11588/heidok.00025737 ppn_swb: 1654794643 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-257378 date_accepted: 2014-02-06 advisor: HASH(0x556120887b70) language: eng bibsort: CAPPELLETTURBANISATI2019 full_text_status: public citation: Cappelletto, Erika (2019) Urbanisation in the time of Claudius in the western provinces of the Empire.
