Sinopsis

Rome is 'the city of seven hills'. This book explores what's at stake in this cliché and how it has helped countless people think about Rome holistically. Embracing evidence from Varro, Virgil and Claudian to sixteenth-century frescoes and nineteenth-century engravings, it proposes a new way of seeing the city.
