Résumé:

The experience of Pompeii always reflects a particular time and sensibility, says Ingrid Rowland. From Pompeii: The Afterlife of a Roman Town explores the fascinating variety of these different experiences, as described by the artists, writers, actors, and other who have toured the excavated site. The city's houses, temples, gardens - and traces of Vesuvius's human victims - have elicited responses ranging from awe to embarrassment, with shifting cultural tastes playing an important role. -- from back cover.
