Quels sont les centres d'intérêt majeurs de nos visiteurs ? Ce qui domine d'abord, c'est l'impression qu'ils vont - tout au moins les premiers - vers une aventure, celle de la découverte de mondes nouveaux : le Sud bien sur, mais aussi le monde disparu des siècles passés, une "antiquité" qui n'est plus celle des livres, mais celle des hommes : de fait, à part les textes qui relatent leur destruction, on ne sait rien par les auteurs anciens de ces villes et, si les lecteurs assidus de Cicéron, de Virgile ou de Tacite que sont les hommes du xviiie siècle connaissent tout de Baia ou des champs Phlégréens, s'ils ont rêvé, comme d'autres, du Cap Misène, les noms de Pompéi et d'Herculanum n'évoquent rien d'autre dans leur mémoire que la fureur du Vésuve. Mais voici que, grâce aux fouilles, on voit sortir de terre non seulement des objets, mais le cadre banal où se déroulait, au fil des jours, la vie des hommes d'autrefois: comme dira plus tard l'auteur du Voyage du jeune Anacharsis, "ces anciens dont on a les oreilles rebattus depuis le collège et qu'on s'était habitué à considérer comme des espèces d'entités littéraires, on les voit revivre avec la plupart des préoccupations, des gots et même des ridicules modernes". D'un mot, qui sera celui de Stendhal, on découvre maintenant à "l'antiquité face à face".

This edition is a representative selection of the various types of inscriptions, from political manifestos to gladiatorial announcements, found in the ancient Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum. These inscriptions, painted and incised on the walls of public and private buildings, document aspects of daily life in the first century A.D. Inscriptions, particularly graffiti, were often written by less educated members of society, and as such provide a rare glimpse of common Latin.

Although there are many works dealing with Pompeii and Herculaneum, none of them try to encompass the entire spectrum of material related to its reception in popular imagination. Pompeii's Ashes surveys a broad variety of such works, ranging from travelogues between ca. 1740 and 2010 to 250 years of fiction, including stage works, music, and films. The first two chapters provide an in-depth analysis of the excavation history and an overview of the reflections of travelers. The six remaining chapters discuss several clearly-defined genres: historical novels with pagan tendencies, and those with Christians and Jews as protagonists, contemporary adventures, time traveling, mock manuscripts, and works dedicated to Vesuvius. "Pompeii's Ashes" demonstrates how the eternal fascination with the oldest still-running archaeological projects in the world began, developed, and continue until now.

Dans cet ouvrage, Magali Cullin-Mingaud apporte non seulement une étude des ateliers de vanniers de Pompéi reconnus ou fouillés dans le cadre du programme « Archéologue de l'artisanat antique» développé par le Centre Jean Bérard et le Centre Camille Jullian grâce à des financements du ministère des Affaires étrangères et de l'Agence nationale de la recherche (projet Artifex), mais aussi une synthèse sur l'artisan de la vannerie. Mettant en œuvre à la fois les sources écrites, iconographiques et archéologiques, elle offre un panorama complet de cet artisan méconnu. En partant des matières premières et du savoir-faire de l'artisan, les techniques de fabrication et les réalisations pratiques sont identifiées et analysées grâce aux reconstitutions effectuées par Guy Barbier, vannier Meilleur Ouvrier de France. On dispose donc désormais d'un ouvrage quasiment exhaustif sur l'artisanant de la vannerie à l'époque romaine.

The Villa of the Papyri is a unique archaeological site and has been very influential in the field of classical studies. The papyri (the only intact library to survive from Greco-Roman antiquity) and bronze sculptures found in the villa have contributed to our knowledge of the ancient world and the villa has become for us the "ideal model" of Roman luxury villa culture.This volume brings together papers delivered by experts in various fields addressing the cultural significance of this ancient site in its contemporary Roman context as well as its cultural reception from its discovery over two hundred and fifty years ago to the most recent excavations in the late twentieth century. They also explore the ways in which digital archaeology can assist our efforts to understand and investigate ancient sites. Topics treated include the Villa's architecture, decoration, and content (i.e., wall-paintings, sculptures, and papyri); their reception since the 18th century; and the current state of knowledge based on the recent partial excavations in the Villa, presented here in English for the first time. Furthermore, the use of digital models of the Villa that incorporate the data from the new excavations and a discussion on the ways in which such models may be used for educational and research purposes are also presented.

Every day Roman urbanites took to the street for myriad tasks, from hawking vegetables and worshipping local deities to simply loitering and socializing. Hartnett takes readers into this thicket of activity as he repopulates Roman streets with their full range of sensations, participants, and events that stretched far beyond simple movement. As everyone from slave to senator met in this communal space, city dwellers found unparalleled opportunities for self-aggrandizing display and the negotiation of social and political tensions. Hartnett charts how Romans preened and paraded in the street, and how they exploited the street's collective space to lob insults and respond to personal rebukes. Combining textual evidence, comparative historical material, and contemporary urban theory with architectural and art historical analysis, The Roman Street offers a social and cultural history of urban spaces that restores them to their rightful place as primary venues for social performance in the ancient world.
