The Ancient Roman City
Recensioni clienti (5)
13 Marzo 2012A rich overview
This overview of ancient Rome -- only the last forty-some pages explore other cities -- attempts to bring the metropolis to life in every way it can, from architecture to government to prostitution to religion to food to holidays, and attempts to engage as many senses as possible in the process.
28 Dicembre 2011required reading for class
I had to have it for a class.
3 Giugno 2006a fine, well-written synthesis
Stambaugh's decision to begin with a political overview of the city's development and then to focus individual chapters on particular topics related to urban history is an excellent solution to presenting his material.
24 Febbraio 2005Both comprehensive and accessible
When I first read this book some years ago, as a classics major and student of ancient domestic architecture, I found it easy to read and digest.
8 Maggio 2004Good Information Trapped in an Editor's Nightmare
The bottom line is that Stambaugh offers up a lot of information in a reasonably small volume, making it interesting and accessible.
