Ebook About
A collection of 15 guided walking tours of the ancient Latin descriptions found throughout Rome. Rome’s oldest known Latin inscription dates from the sixth century BC; the most recent major specimen was mounted in 2006—a span of more than two and a half millennia. Remarkably, many of these inscriptions are still to be found in situ, on the walls, gates, temples, obelisks, bridges, fountains, and churches of the city. Classicist Tyler Lansford has collected some 400 of these inscriptions and arranged them—with English translations—into fifteen walking tours that trace the physical and historical contours of the city. Each itinerary is prefaced by an in-depth introduction that provides a survey of the history and topography of the relevant area of the city. The Latin texts appear on the left-hand page with English translations on the right. The original texts are equipped with full linguistic annotation, and the translations are supplemented with historical and cultural notes that explain who mounted them and why. This unique guide will prove a fascinating and illuminating companion for both sophisticated visitors to the Eternal City and armchair travelers seeking a novel perspective into Rome's rich history.“This book is wonderful. . . . Lansford’s evocative depictions of monuments, cityscape, and memorable humans have inspired me anew with the fascination of Rome.” —Mary T. Boatwright, Duke University“If this book is not slipped into many a Rome-bound suitcase, there is no justice in the world. I can think of few more enjoyable companions on a prowl through the city.” —Jane Stevenson, Times Literary Supplement (UK)

Book The Latin Inscriptions of Rome: A Walking Guide Review :



AT LAST! There are so very many inscriptions in Rome, on tombs, chapels, buildings, and nearly all of them are in Latin. I can read Italian but have to take wild stabs at the Latin. This book has been very helpful in expanding my ability to better understand what I'm looking at in many corners of Rome. The organization is very helpful and clear, and the writing is done with a light touch. I have confidence in the translations and am looking forward to using this book again when in Rome.
This book was eminently useful on my trip to Rome. It contained many of the important inscriptions as well as some I hadn't noticed before. A personal favorite being the monument to Honorius and Arcadia in the Forum which had Stilicho's name crossed out after he was executed. I would've totally missed that weathered marble block if the book hadn't pointed it out to me.HOWEVER, this book is heavy, even in its paperback version. It definitely added to the weight, being lugged around in my backpack, and especially in this modern age, I could see this book being far more useful in an electronic version, or even its own App.Otherwise, a solid book. Just one that needs to combine its old fashioned scholarship with new fangled technology.EDIT: Looks like they took my advice and made a kindle version. HUZZAH.
