Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Trip to Rome As this narrative will include the observation of a trip of only ten weeks, over an extensive territory, it cannot be expected that I will be able to give more than a superficial estimate of the people, and the social conditions, and only a passing glance at the great buildings, galleries, and other objects Of historical and biographical interest. In this narrative, I shall address the reader, believing that direct communication, in the conversational style will add to whatever may be found interesting in it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from To and From Rome Previously to visiting Rome I often contemplated what sort of a place I would find. I had it all pictured in my mind the Appian Way and the Aqueduct of Claudius. These were the first I saw in entering Rome. The Appian Way, which I thought was built of solid masonry, with Julius Caesar's and his contemporaries' tombs on either of the Way. Instead thereof I found Appian Way was only a macadamized road 25 feet wide, entering Rome, and was 180 miles long, and Claudius Aqueduct was built about 20 feet from the ground. Rome now is a modern city in all respects. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Tasting Rome written by Katie Parla and published by Clarkson Potter. This book was released on 2016-03-29 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A love letter from two Americans to their adopted city, Tasting Rome is a showcase of modern dishes influenced by tradition, as well as the rich culture of their surroundings. Even 150 years after unification, Italy is still a divided nation where individual regions are defined by their local cuisine. Each is a mirror of its city’s culture, history, and geography. But cucina romana is the country’s greatest standout. Tasting Rome provides a complete picture of a place that many love, but few know completely. In sharing Rome’s celebrated dishes, street food innovations, and forgotten recipes, journalist Katie Parla and photographer Kristina Gill capture its unique character and reveal its truly evolved food culture—a culmination of 2000 years of history. Their recipes acknowledge the foundations of Roman cuisine and demonstrate how it has transitioned to the variations found today. You’ll delight in the expected classics (cacio e pepe, pollo alla romana, fiore di zucca); the fascinating but largely undocumented Sephardic Jewish cuisine (hraimi con couscous, brodo di pesce, pizzarelle); the authentic and tasty offal (guanciale, simmenthal di coda, insalata di nervitti); and so much more. Studded with narrative features that capture the city’s history and gorgeous photography that highlights both the food and its hidden city, you’ll feel immediately inspired to start tasting Rome in your own kitchen. eBook Bonus Material: Be sure to check out the directory of all of Rome's restaurants mentioned in the book!

Book Synopsis The Story of Rome (Classic Reprint) by : Norwood Young
Download or read book The Story of Rome (Classic Reprint) written by Norwood Young and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Rome The story of Rome covers an area so vast that it would be pedantic on my part to apologise for the omissions which will be observed on every page of this little book. It is, of necessity, an abridgment of the work of many authors and many volumes. The small space at my disposal has made it impossible to add to the story of Christianity in Rome any adequate consideration of Roman churches, museums and ruins. I have devoted one chapter, the second, to a slight sketch of the remains lying in the neighbourhood of the Colosseum and Forum Romanum, and I have mentioned the more important of the recent sensational discoveries, but it is too early yet to dogmatise as to their exact significance. Excavation is still being keenly pursued, and new finds may at any moment negative the opinions already formed. Such other topographical references as the book contains will be found in the last chapter, and in the Appendix, which has a few practical suggestions as to hotels, etc., an itinerary for the hurried visitor, a short list of books, and a very brief statement of the more interesting objects to be found in some of the most important churches. I have borrowed freely from all the authors whose works are mentioned in the Appendix. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Rome and Italy written by Livy and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2004-05-27 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Books VI-X of Livy's monumental work trace Rome's fortunes from its near collapse after defeat by the Gauls in 386 bc to its emergence, in a matter of decades, as the premier power in Italy, having conquered the city-state of Samnium in 293 bc. In this fascinating history, events are described not simply in terms of partisan politics, but through colourful portraits that bring the strengths, weaknesses and motives of leading figures such as the noble statesman Camillus and the corrupt Manlius vividly to life. While Rome's greatest chronicler intended his history to be a memorial to former glory, he also had more didactic aims - hoping that readers of his account could learn from the past ills and virtues of the city.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beyond the Road to Rome Since then, six months have been devoted to the task, and in many ways it has proved a difficult one, chiefly because it was hard to make those who were asked to write understand the true Object of the book. And that object is to convince non Catholics that we converts remain where we are because we believe Divine Providence has led us; because we are satisfied; because we are sure our step was the right one; in a word because we have not been disillusioned, as numerous people, before we took the step, predicted we would be.

Book Synopsis Pictures of Old Rome (Classic Reprint) by : Frances Minto Dickinson Elliot
Download or read book Pictures of Old Rome (Classic Reprint) written by Frances Minto Dickinson Elliot and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-07 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pictures of Old Rome by Frances Minto Dickinson Elliot is an enchanting account of Roman history in all its glory. Elliot opens a window into the world of Rome in its ancient days through a descriptive narrative that is sure to make the reader feel the sights and sounds he painstakingly constructs throughout the course of this book. Spread across thirteen chapters, Pictures of Old Rome starts with an account of the Piazza Del Popolo in all its grandeur. The author sets the tone for the rest of the text with an imaginative recollection of events as they would have been in ancient times, with references to the Emperor's parades and victory marches through the Piazza. He then moves on to describe various other points of attraction in the city including the mausoleum of Augustus, the catacombs, San Gregorio and many more. It is, however, Elliot's description of Rome's socio-economic dichotomy that keeps the reader enthralled. While a majority of the work praises and applauds the magnificent architecture and cultural revolution of Rome, it is in the chapter on Rome's Interiors that the reader will fully understand the stark differences between the rich and the poor and the urban rural divide that existed in old Rome. Elliot adopts sanguine language and liberal use of superlatives in this gripping recount of Rome in the days of the empire. Pictures of Old Rome is a must read for all those who are keen to learn more about this historical place whilst also being a treasure trove of information for travel enthusiasts and history buffs alike.

This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pictures From Roman Life and Story With that happy mixture of caution and courage which was probably half the secret of his good luck, he declined the offer, but resolved to visit the capital in a private capacity. Landing in Italy he heard that Caesar by his will had adopted him as his son and made him his heir. The troops at Brundisium, the port of disembarkation, saluted him accordingly by the name of Caesar. Early in May he arrived at Rome. I shall not follow in detail the events of the next sixteen years. Throughout this period, under circumstances of the greatest delicacy and difficulty, the young statesman conducted himself with unfailing tact, and was rewarded by almost unvarying success. One after another his rivals made fatal mistakes of which he promptly availed himself. Antony, a great soldier whose very faults somehow endeared him to the people, alienated their hearts by his mad passion for Cleopatra. To ordinary excesses they were indifferent, but it was intolerable that the master of Roman legions should exhibit himself in public as the bond-slave of a foreign queen.
