Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Inside the Unseen City of Ancient Rome>What you will find inside: - Vivid scenes of insulae and domus, the houses of the poor and the rich.- Close, sensory tours of baths, bakeries, workshops, and markets. - Honest portrayals of Roman slavery, work, and family life.- Archaeological snapshots from Pompeii and other excavations that bring private lives to light.This is narrative history at its most intimate, built from archaeology, primary sources, and the small human details that make the past feel immediate. You will walk past household shrines and street altars, listen to the market's endless negotiations, and feel the claustrophobic heat of a tenement at night. Along the way you will meet people who lived, loved, and survived under Rome's shadow: plebeians and patricians, freedmen and convict laborers, artisans and water carriers.

Read this book to see Rome the way its people saw it, not as a monument, but as a messy, noisy, stubborn city full of ordinary lives. Turn the page and start walking.…
