A comprehensive visual survey of the ancient city draws on cutting-edge architectural research to reconstruct the latest beliefs about Pompeii's history, discussing such topics as the lives and deaths of its citizens, its political and religious structures, and its destruction by the eruption of AD 79.
The
dramatic story of Pompeii's destruction has been handed down to us by
Roman writers, its paintings and mosaics have astonished visitors since
their discovery in the eighteenth century, and its houses and public
buildings to this day present a vivid picture of life, disaster, and
death in a Roman town.
Pompeii is not quite a time capsule, a
frozen moment in history, but it is probably the closest we will ever
get to one. This up-to-date new survey draws on evidence produced at the
cutting edge of modern archaeological research, revealing how the
evidence for life in this city was first uncovered, and how
archaeologists over the centuries have unpeeled the layers that enable
us to reconstruct Pompeii's history.
With its lavish
illustrations, covering monumental architecture and inscriptions, shops,
graffiti, wall-paintings, and mosaics, plus its numerous box features
ranging from theatrical entertainments to water supply,The Complete Pompeiiis the ultimate resource and inspirational guide to this iconic ancient town.
Among the many topics covered:
  • How Pompeii was destroyed in the eruption of AD 79
  • What we know of the lives and deaths of its inhabitants
  • What the houses tell us about the people who lived in them
  • Who was involved in politics
  • What can be reconstructed about religious practices
