And when Renaissance doesn't look like Renaissance? The Case of the Town of Rijeka in the 15th century

Based on relatively humble residues from the field, completed by archival sources and comparative analysis, an outline of the town of Rijeka from the Late Middle Ages has emerged onto the surface. This outline is significantly different from the one which followed the town’s renewal in the aftermath of 1509 and 1511 Venetian ravages. The emphasis of the analysis has been put on architecture of the Late Gothic Augustinian Monastery in Rijeka which was closely related to the 15th-century town’s feudal rulers. Stages of the church construction along with its initial cloister, preserved only in trace amounts, and alongside two votive burial chapels differ from one another. During the 15th century, the town of Rijeka was transformed from the solely receptive one to a small, but emissive cultural centre in relation to the areas which gravitated towards it, such as Kras (Carso) and its Roman period road, which enabled Rijeka’s communication with the town of Trst (Trieste) and Kranjska (Carniola), primary economic hinterland of the time.
