Abstract

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".

Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.
