About this title

Synopsis

Exploring the significance of Rome from the late eighteenth century to 1945, scholars from several disciplines, including English literature and history of art as well as classics, discuss a wide range of images and texts, from statues of Napoleon to Freud's dream analysis. Rome's astonishing range of meanings has made it a fertile paradigm for making sense of--and also for problematizing--history, politics, identity, memory and desire.

Review

"...thoughtful and wide-ranging..." American Historical Review

"...the majority of the essays...offer sound academic approaches to their respective topics." - Christina Juma Loughborough University
