Whispering City: Rome and Its Histories

Whispering City: Rome and Its Histories

by R.J.B.Bosworth (Author)

Synopsis

In "Civilization and Its Discontents", Sigmund Freud claimed that Rome must be comprehended as 'not a human dwelling place but a mental entity', in which the palaces of the Caesars still stand alongside modern apartment buildings in layers of brick, mortar, and memory. This book accepts Freud's challenge.
