Résumé

In "Old Rome: A Handbook to the Ruins of the City and the Campagna, " Robert Burn intricately blends historical scholarship with vivid descriptive narrative to create a comprehensive guide to the ancient remnants of Rome and its surrounding countryside. Embracing the spirit of Romanticism, Burn employs a reflective tone that elevates the reader's experience beyond mere observation, allowing them to engage emotionally with the ruins' poignant histories.
This handbook not only catalogues significant archaeological sites but also situates them within their broader cultural and historical contexts, enriching the visitor's understanding of the layered stories embedded in the landscape. Robert Burn, a prominent figure in 19th-century literature, was deeply influenced by the burgeoning interest in archaeology and classical studies during his time. His own explorations of the Italian peninsula, combined with a profound passion for antiquity, fueled his desire to document the grandeur and decay of one of history's richest civilizations.
Burn's academic background and firsthand experiences in Rome uniquely inform his writing, as he aims to bridge the gap between the past and his contemporary audience, making history tangible and accessible. This remarkable handbook is essential reading for both scholars and laypersons with a passion for history, archaeology, and European culture. Burn's evocative prose serves as an invitation to wander through Rome's storied streets, empowering readers to appreciate the enduring legacies of its ancient ruins.
Perfect for travelers and enthusiasts alike, "Old Rome" enriches the exploration of a city that remains timeless in its allure.
