Book Synopsis Roman Landscape: Culture and Identity by : Diana Spencer
Book excerpt: This survey explores how and why Romans of the late Republic and early Principate were fascinated with landscaped nature. Thematic discussions and case studies work through what 'landscape' represented and how studying Roman identity in terms of place, environment and the natural world helps us better to understand Rome itself.
