Pompeii. a 2000-year old city frozen in time one famous day during the late summer of 79 AD, is full of monuments that have ignited the passion of ancient art experts for over 200 years, but also that of travellers, fascinated by the uniqueness of this city in a country already unparalleled historically in the rest of the world.
But this is not all that Pompeii offers.
First and foremost, it is a city full of stories about people from thousands of years ago who worked, loved, played, ate, were politicians, traders, hated each other, and stole from each other ...
This book contains 79 unusual stories that reveal the magic of the pulsating life and interesting facts that made up the daily life of the inhabitants who lived there. At times, it was a long way off from the habits of our time and at other times, it was surprisingly similar - they are stories that transport us to a distant world, a world that otherwise would have been lost forever.
Lara Anniboletti (Perugia, 1973) graduated in Archeology and received her Ph.D. from the University of Rome Tor Vergata with her research focused on Pompeian themes (domestic religion, private architecture, city walls). In addition to continuing her scientific research, she organizes events, the promotion and dissemination of cultural heritage, and her slogan is archeology is a science to be enhanced with humanity. She is currently a member of the Technical Secretariat of Pompeii as the Manager of the Archaeological Park' s Communications Office.
