Sinopsis
Excerpt from Les Eaux: Introduction; Les Aqueducs Romains
L'entretien des égouts et des latrines se lie aussi intimement à la distribution de l'eau; il constitue l'assainissement d'une ville et atteint son dernier degré de perfection aux époques où l'on arrive à l'abus de l'eau, où les administrations municipales n'ont plus qu'à veiller à la régularité de la distribution, sans s'inquiéter du chiffre de la consommation. Aussi l'on constate toujours que les villes parvenues à un haut état de prospérité financière, n'hé sitent pas à employer une part considérable de leurs ressources pour s'assurer une large distribution d'eau.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history of Roman aqueducts, the monumental feats of engineering that supplied water to ancient Rome. The author draws on the works of Pliny the Elder and Sextus Julius Frontinus, curators of Rome's water system in the 1st century, to provide a detailed account of these structures. The book delves into the factors that led to the development of aqueducts, the challenges faced by their builders, and the impact of these structures on Roman society. The author sheds light on the technological ingenuity of the Romans, their understanding of hydraulics, and their ability to harness natural resources for the benefit of their civilization. Through its examination of these ancient marvels, the book offers insights into the enduring legacy of Roman engineering and its influence on modern water management practices.
