| Title: | Medioevosicilia |
|---|---|
| Description: | Medioevosicilia is an Italian website written by a Sicilian art critic focusing on medieval churches and castles in eastern Sicily. For each monument there is a brief description and a gallery of pictures. There is also one referenced paper on the Cistercians in Sicily (in the "storia" section). The website contains further galleries of pictures on rural Sicily and Mount Etna. The pictures themselves in some cases match the accompanying poetical compositions, but the author also publishes a personal collection of poetry in his personal blog "Epigrammi". The contrast between the apparent beauty and serenity of the pictures in the main website and the sadness radiating by the poetry in the blog is noticeable. The website is updated frequently and may be useful to both students and researchers in the medieval archaeology of Sicily or Italian studies generally. |
