•
Innovative discussion of the theme of
monumentality
In the ancient world
•
Relates architecture In the
Antonine
period to wider social history
The quality of
monumentality
Is attributed to the buildings of few historical epochs or
cultures more frequently or consistently than to those of the Roman Empire. It is this
quality that has helped to make them enduring models for builders of later periods. This
extensively Illustrated book, the first full-length study of the concept of
monumentality
in
Classical Antiquity, asks what it Is that the notion encompasses and how significant it
was for the Romans themselves in moulding their Individual or collective aspirations and
identities. Although no single word existed in antiquity for the qualities that modem
authors regard as making up that term, its Latin derivation
-
from
monumentum,
a
monument
-
attests plainly to the presence of the concept In the mentalities of ancient
Romans, and the development of that notion through the Roman era laid the foundation
for the classical ideal of
monumentality,
which reached a height in early modern Europe.
This book Is also the first full-length study of architecture in the
Antonine
Age
-
when It
is generally agreed the Roman Empire was at its height. By exploring the public
architecture of Roman Italy and both Western and Eastern provinces of the Roman
Empire from the point of view of the benefactors who funded such buildings, the
architects who
de.gned
them, and the public who used and experienced them, Edmund
Thomas analyses the reasons why Roman builders sought to construct monumental
buildings and uncovers the close link between architectural
monumentality
and the
identity and ideology of the Roman Empire itself.
Readership: Scholars and students of architecture and architectural history, especially
Roman architecture; of Roman imperial history.

Description
•

The quality of
'monumentality'
Is attributed to the buildings of few historical epochs or
cultures more frequently or consistently than to those of the Roman Empire. It is this
quality that has helped to make them enduring models for builders of later periods. This
extensively Illustrated book, the first full-length study of the concept of
monumentality
in
Classical Antiquity, asks what it Is that the notion encompasses and how significant it
was for the Romans themselves in moulding their Individual or collective aspirations and
identities. Although no single word existed in antiquity for the qualities that modem
authors regard as making up that term, its Latin derivation
-
from
monumentum,
'a

-
attests plainly to the presence of the concept In the mentalities of ancient
Romans, and the development of that notion through the Roman era laid the foundation
for the classical ideal of
monumentality,
which reached a height in early modern Europe.
This book Is also the first full-length study of architecture in the
