The atlas of Ancient Rome : biography and portraits of the city
\"The Atlas of Ancient Rome provides a comprehensive archaeological survey of the city of Rome from prehistory to the early medieval period. Lavishly illustrated throughout with full-color maps, drawings, photos, and 3D reconstructions, this magnificent two-volume slipcased edition features the latest discoveries and scholarship, with new descriptions of more than 500 monuments, including the Sanctuary of Vesta, the domus Augusti, and the Mausoleum of Augustus. It is destined to become the standard reference for scholars, students, and anyone interested in the history of the city of Rome. The Atlas of Ancient Rome is monumental in scope. It examines the city's topography and political-administrative divisions, trade and economic production, and social landscape and infrastructure--from residential neighborhoods and gardens to walls, roads, aqueducts, and sewers. It describes the fourteen regions of Rome and the urban history of each in unprecedented detail, and includes profiles and reconstructions of major monuments and works of art. This is the only atlas of the ancient city to incorporate the most current archaeological findings and use the latest mapping technologies.\"--Publisher's website.

CRONACHE DEL MUSEO DELL'ARTE CLASSICA: Attività dell'anno accademico 1997-1998
In the course of the academic year 1997-98 we restored a part of classical sculpture of the fifth century B.C. and we arrange new positions for students and a new conference room for lessons (Aula di Olimpia). Two exhibitions have taken place: Stone al caleidoscopio. I vetri della collezione Gorga: un patrimonio ritrovato, and Scavi e ricerche archeologiche dell'Università di Roma La Sapienza. For the seminar series \"Emanuel Loewy\" Cornelia Isler Kerenyi gave a talk on La madre di Dionisio. We loaned the reconstruction of the Galati-group, made by Filippo Coarelli, to the University of Camerino for the exhibition: Vittorie sui Celti. Capolavori scultorei d'Oriente e d'Occidente a confronto.

Roma imperialistica: un caso di sviluppo precapitalistico (Imperialist Rome: A Case of Precapitalist Development)
The Roman economy is viewed from a Marxist standpoint in light of the Academy Symposium and the 1979 congress at the Istituto Gramsci in Pisa. A \"precapitalist\" society is what precedes so-called \"classic-competitive or industrial capitalism\" born in the last century from the industrial revolution, but is itself a \"commercial capitalism\", involving trade of the surplus of production. The Roman economy may be considered a special case of precapitalist development in which small \"islands\" (villae) sometimes produce goods both for their own use and for trade. The distinctive mode of production involves the use of slaves. Among the changes involved is the development of master from paternal figure to commercial boss and an increased antagonism between town and country.

Il vigneto e la villa del fondo di Settefinestre nel Cosano: un caso di produzione Agricola per il mercato transmarino (The Vineyard of the Villa of Settefinestre in the Area of Cosa: Agricultural Production for the Overseas Market)
In order to understand overseas trade, we must also know the main features of the agricultural production of the goods involved in that trade. The ager cosanus is a specimen of agricultural development devoted, from the early first century B.C., to the exportation of wine. The villa of Settefinestre comprised about 500 iugera and, on the basis of Cato's account of a model vineyard, we may estimate that about 230 iugera were covered with vineyards. The villa was capable of producing approximately 4260 amphoras of wine. The life of the villa had three phases: I. (75-B.C.-25 A.D.) the architecture of the villa is well-balanced, with a careful distinction between villa urbana and rustica; II. (25-100 A.D.) there is an increase in the productive parts of the villa (cella vinaria); III. (second century A.D.) in this period the villa is progressively neglected.
