A richly illustrated guide to the monuments and archaeological remains of ancient Rome, this Electa volume offers a visually immersive and informative tour through the Eternal City. Covering major sites such as the Colosseum, Roman Forum, Palatine Hill, and Capitoline Museums, the book combines historical narrative with detailed site descriptions, making it equally useful for travelers and armchair historians. The text by Ada Giacobbe is clear and accessible, while the translation by Richard Sadleir ensures readability for an English-speaking audience. The volume is particularly notable for its high production quality, featuring abundant color photography, architectural reconstructions, maps, and reproductions of classical artworks. Layouts pair images with concise explanatory text, helping readers understand both the original function and later history of Rome's monuments. Sections on excavation history and preservation add further context, enhancing the book's value as more than a simple guide. Published by Mondadori Electa - one of Italy's leading art and archaeology publishers - this is a 2005 reprint of the 2000 edition. Large-format softcover with glossy illustrated wraps; printed in Italy. Electa publications are well regarded for museum-quality visuals and authoritative yet accessible content. Condition: Very Good. Light surface and shelf wear to covers, including minor scuffing to rear panel. Binding remains firm and square. Interior is clean, bright, and unmarked, with crisp images throughout. A well-preserved and highly presentable copy. Ada Giacobbe is an Italian writer and editor specializing in cultural and historical guides, particularly focused on classical antiquity and Italian heritage.

Cloth. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. First Edition. English translation by Christopher Evans. AN INFORMATIVE, REVEALING LITERARY AND VISUALLY ABSORBING, EXEMPLARY PUBLICATION! From the Preface (craftsmanship and technology: the italian way): "The new millenium is marked by a far-reaching evolution in the concept of luxury. The changes that have occurred in the economy, in society and cultural life have focused luxury more closely on qualities of perception and the relation between object and subject, between product and consumer. The vision of luxury as pure ostentation is gone; the phase of absolute synthesis and the quest for the essence alone have been superseded. In recent years the sphere of luxury is a return to private values, intimate, spiritual and real. A simple lifestyle is in favor; the keywords are authenticity and awareness. The upshot is that the home and the domestic horizon have become the place where this authenticity is achieved, since modern society characterized by speed, technology and a new nomadism, has produced a need for protection and ancestral urge to feel the reassuring protection of the cocoon. The upshot is that it now becomes essential to analyze the interaction between man and technology. The pervasiveness of technology And IT, cold and detached, has actually increased the pleasure and desire of the past, of traditional things, of products that retrieve decorative features of local cultures and histories. These values are gaining great importance in all aspects of everyday life and the way of introducing innovation, such as artifacts for the home, notably furniture. Italian innovation is essentially bound up with the design process, which has historically developed a technical culture much closer to the workings of the craft workshop than to heav industry, though it is based on a careful study of technology and materials. I feel this is the reason behind the success of Italian design also abroad." Profusely illustrated in full-color photography (many full page) with accompanying descriptive captions/passages. 282 pages. A near fine, bright, clean, tight, collector-worthy copy sans rips/tears, stains, and discoloration. *NOTE: Due to size/weight, significant additional shipping will be required for out-of-U.S. shipment in conjunction with destination.
