| Book Description | The guide is thus designed as a tool for contemporary readers to orient themselves in ancient Rome, and acts as a compass, with points of reference (maps, reconstructions and chronological tables) that offer a continuous explanation of the traveller's position in time and space at any given moment, whether the voyage is real or virtual. This helps the reader to make an ongoing comparison between the urban structure of ancient Rome and that of the modern city, between everyday, visible Rome and the invisible city of the ancients. Updated and detailed texts, spectacular colour images, numerous aerial views embracing the many archaeological areas, maps, and three-dimensional reconstructions help to unlock the secrets of what was once the "Capital of the World". |
