Sinopsis
Step into mid-19th century Rome through a vivid travelogue that pairs landscape with history. A memoir of arrival, first impressions, and the daily life of a city at the crossroads of ancient grandeur and modern change, this book invites readers to walk the streets, hear the voices, and glimpse the Campagna as it shapes the experience of a capital in transition.
In Roba di Roma, Story chronicles a family's crossing from Civita Vecchia to Rome, capturing the sensory detail of the journey—the sea, the Campagna winds, and the bustle of arrival. The narrative blends scenic description with observations on people, places, and the remnants of ancient Rome that dot the landscape, from bridges and villas to churches and markets. Factual notes and period anecdotes illuminate a city undergoing political transformation while holding fast to its layers of history and culture.
- Experience Rome from a traveler’s perspective, with rich details of streets, views, and sounds.
- Discover scenes from daily life, markets, religious sites, and the Campagna’s changing face.
- Read historical vignettes and anecdotes that illuminate Rome’s enduring character.
- Get a sense of 19th‑century travel, boredom, wonder, and discovery in a city of contrasts.
Ideal for readers of travelogues, history‑mueum readers, and anyone curious about how Rome looked and felt during a pivotal era.

As it is going through the press, Rome has become an integral portion of the Kingdom of Italy, and will, in all probability, undergo many and important changes. Among others, the censorship of the press will be abolished, and free admission given to literature of all kinds; so that this book may now enter without that challenge which, on account of some opinions herein expressed, it has hitherto met. It is a curious illustration of the previous condition of things in Rome, that, although the government formally authorized its admission, it was, during the last two years, persistently stopped at the custom-house, on the avowed ground that the miraculous Bambino of Ara Cœli was mentioned with disrespect in its pages. This objection, however, no longer will prevail, and any traveller may now freely carry it with him, without danger of its being confiscated on the frontier.
