La civilisation romaine . Rome. C'est une ville, un empire, une civilisation. Mais une ville où les habitants aspirent à la ruralité, un empire créé par la République, une civilisation dont la domination repose sur la participation des vaincus.

Résumé:
La civilisation romaine . Rome. C'est une ville, un empire, une civilisation. Mais une ville où les habitants aspirent à la ruralité, un empire créé par la République, une civilisation dont la domination repose sur la participation des vaincus. Rome est le nom de cette création continue de contradictions qui, douze siècles durant, sans révérer ni renier le passé, s'est nourrie des crises qui l'ont agitée et où l'homme a trouvé les moyens de vivre sa liberté. Rome a fait une ville de ce qui jusque-là était le monde et rien du monde qui nous entoure aujourd'hui n'eût été ce qu'il est si Rome n'avait existé. Ensemble complexe de coutumes, de techniques, de règles sociales formulées et informulées, de goûts, de styles de vie, et de manières de s'insérer dans le monde, les problèmes romains ne sont jamais très loin de ceux de notre temps. Dans cet ouvrage de référence, Pierre Grimai nous invite à redécouvrir l'émergence et la chute d'une culture sans précédent que nous ne saurions oublier sans mutiler une part de nous-mêmes.

Résumé:
In 1532, the Dutch painter Maarten van Heemskerck (1498–1574) traveled from Haarlem to Rome. Pencil in hand, he discovered antiquity and the Renaissance. His remarkable drawings take us on a journey through time in sixteenth-century Rome. Van Heemskerck was everywhere, from the Colosseum to the Forum Romanum to the Piazza del Campidoglio. He was one of the first artists from north of the Alps to embark on a trip to Rome purely for the sake of art. His sketches reveal his admiration for the buildings and artworks of antiquity and the contemporary art of Raphael and Michelangelo. This magnificent volume invites the reader to discover van Heemkerck’s drawing technique, Roman topography, and the social network of the sixteenth century as well as the fascinating story of the restoration of his Roman sketchbook.

Illustrated itineraries wind through Rome’s streets, piazzas, and gardens, following the trail of water as it flows, propelled by gravity, through different neighborhoods. In addition to mapping thirteen walking tours, Katherine Wentworth Rinne also pulls the reader underground—where hidden springs and streams still flow—to illuminate how Rome’s complex topography has been transformed since antiquity, as well as into the sky, imaginatively flying over Rome’s villas and parks to give readers a sense of the infrastructure through an aerial view.

"The tourist Venice is Venice," Mary McCarthy once observed--a sentiment very much in line with what most of the fourteen million tourists who visit the city each year experience, but at the same time a painful reality for the 65,000 Venetians who actually live there. Venice is viewed from a new perspective in this engaging book, which offers a heady, one-city tour of tourism itself. Conducting readers from the beginnings of Venetian tourism in the late Middle Ages to its emergence as a form of mass entertainment in our time, the authors explore what happens when today's "industrial tourism" collides with an ancient and ever-more-fragile culture. Giving equal consideration to those who tour Venice and those who live there, their book affords rare insight into just what it is that the touring and the toured see, experience, and elicit from each other.
