Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a travelogue revealing the author's experiences during thirty separate day trips exploring Rome. The author was inspired by earlier writings of famous travelers like Goethe and Stendhal, and sought a fresh perspective that avoided relying on established tourist routes. In each chapter, the author presents a different excursion recounting their profound sensory and emotional responses to ancient sites, museums, churches, ruins, and the lives of ordinary people. Along the way, they contemplate everything from the evolving character of the city and its inhabitants to the profound philosophical implications of viewing the relics of a glorious past. This enchanting book is both a personal memoir and a work of historical and cultural analysis. Ultimately, through the author's passionate and highly subjective account, readers are left with a deeper appreciation for Rome's indomitable spirit, her poignant scars, and the indelible mark she has left on Western Civilization.
