Book Herculaneum

Download or read book Herculaneum written by Andrew Wallace-Hadrill and published by White Lion Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In AD 79, the volcano Vesuvius erupted, burying the towns of Pompeii and Herculaneum under ash and rock, and leaving them remarkably well preserved for centuries. While Pompeii has been extensively written about and popularized, the remains of Herculaneum are less widely known, but they have yielded spectacular archaeological evidence. This is the first major study of Herculaneum since that of Joseph Jay Deiss, published in 1966 and last revised in 1993. ... Andrew Wallace-Hadrill revisits the evidence to unpick what is known from the speculation and fanciful invention, building a far richer impression of the town: its population, its public and private spaces and its place in the Roman world. He points up the similarities and differences between Herculaneum and its more famous neighbour, decodes the confusing mix of different types of people apparently living closely along side each other, examines the extensive documentary evidence and tackles head-on the complexities of excavating, preserving, restoring and presenting this priceless archaeological resource."--Jacket.

Book Herculaneum and the House of the Bicentenary

Download or read book Herculaneum and the House of the Bicentenary written by Sarah Court and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2020-02-11 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a striking account of the life, destruction, rediscovery, and cultural significance of the ancient Roman town of Herculaneum and one of its grandest residences—the House of the Bicentenary. This volume vividly recounts, for general readers, the Roman town of Herculaneum, destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE and uniquely preserved for nearly two thousand years. Initial chapters offer an engaging historical overview of the town during antiquity, including the riveting story of its rediscovery in the eighteenth century, excavation in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and broad cultural significance in modern times. Subsequent chapters offer an interpretive tour of the ancient town, then focus on one of Herculaneum’s grandest and most beautifully decorated private residences, known as the House of the Bicentenary. Located on the town’s main street, it has a range of features—original rooms, magnificent wall paintings and mosaics, and remarkable documents—that illuminate daily life in the ancient world. Final chapters bring the story up to date, including recent discoveries about the site and its famous papyrus manuscripts, as well as ongoing conservation initiatives.

Book Houses and Society in Pompeii and Herculaneum

Download or read book Houses and Society in Pompeii and Herculaneum written by Andrew Wallace-Hadrill and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-05-10 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few sources reveal the life of the ancient Romans as vividly as do the houses preserved by the eruption of Vesuvius. Wealthy Romans lavished resources on shaping their surroundings to impress their crowds of visitors. The fashions they set were taken up and imitated by ordinary citizens. In this illustrated book, Andrew Wallace-Hadrill explores the rich potential of the houses of Pompeii and Herculaneum to offer new insights into Roman social life. Exposing misconceptions derived from contemporary culture, he shows the close interconnection of spheres we take as discrete: public and private, family and outsiders, work and leisure. Combining archaeological evidence with Roman texts and comparative material from other cultures, Wallace-Hadrill raises a range of new questions. How did the organization of space and the use of decoration help to structure social encounters between owner and visitor, man and woman, master and slave? What sort of "households" did the inhabitants of the Roman house form? How did the world of work relate to that of entertainment and leisure? How widely did the luxuries of the rich spread among the houses of craftsmen and shopkeepers? Through analysis of the remains of over two hundred houses, Wallace-Hadrill reveals the remarkably dynamic social environment of early imperial Italy, and the vital part that houses came to play in defining what it meant "to live as a Roman."
