| Zusammenfassung: | From the Blurb: The ruins of the Forum in Rome, the centre of its ancient Empire, are one of the best known wonders of antiquity and a highpoint of the tourist route round the Eternal City, but the Forum remains for many visitors a baffling and unwelcoming place. Yet there can be few more historic and evocative places in the world. Caesar was cremated there. Charles V and Mussolini rode by it in triumph. There Napoleon celebrated his festival of liberty. David Watkin's Forum is the site as it was famous for hundreds of years, celebrated in the haunting engravings of Piranesi and the romantic views of the Grand Tour, not the archaeological building site it has become. With a radical appraisal he teaches us to see the Forum with new eyes and helps us to rediscover its rich history during and since antiquity and that of the remarkable buildings which later centuries have added. His book will be as stimulating to the armchair traveller as it will be useful as a guide to the Forum itself. |
