Ă propos de ce livre
The rediscovery of the Roman cities overwhelmed by the rage of Vesuvius is one of history's most extraordinary adventure stories. Pompeii Awakened revels in that adventure, and tells of the re-emergence of a long-vanished cosmopolis which profoundly inspired a later age - from its arts and architecture to its science, sex and religion.

PREFACE
1 Pliny the Younger, Letters, Book VI, Letters XVI and XX.
CHAPTER I
1 Willem Jongman, The Economy and Society of Pompeii, Grieben, Amsterdam, 1988, on the shards at Ostia. In Pompeii, street signs were not written, but were small rectangular picture plaques of baked earthenware. Off the main Forum is one showing two men carrying on their shoulders a pole from which an amphora hangs; this was Amphorae Street.
2 Ray Laurence, Roman Pompeii, Space and Society, Routledge, London, 1994, p. 51.
3 Lucius Annaeus Seneca, Naturales Quaestiones, Book VI, 1, 3â4, AD 62, in Patrizia Antignani (ed.), Pompei e Ercolano: Monumenti e miti della Campania Felix, Pierro, Naples, 1996, p. 11.
4 L. Richardson, Jr., Pompeii: An Architectural History, Johns Hopkins University Press, Baltimore, 1988, p. 7.
5 Pliny the Younger, The Letters of Caius Plinius Caecilius Secundus, trans. Melmoth, Revd F.C.T. Bosanquet, George Bell and Son, London, 1895, Book VI, Letters XVI and XX, pp. 193â8, 200â4, slightly adapted for readability. Subsequent quotations are from the same letters.
6 University of Naples researchers Giuseppe Mastrolorenzo and Piero Paolo Petrone, âStudi scientifici sullâeruzione e i suoi effettiâ, in Mario Pagano (ed.), Gli antichi ercolanesi, catalogue, Electa, Naples, 2000.

9 Domenico Fontana, diary entry 1592, in Carlo Bonucci, Pompei descritta da Carlo Bonucci architetto, 3rd edn, Naples, 1827; also in Antignani, Pompei e Ercolano, pp. 44â5.
CHAPTER II
1 D.A. Parrino, Nuova guida de forastieri per lâantichitĂĄ curiossime di Pozzuoli, Naples, 1709, cited in Patrizia Antignani (ed.), Il miglio dâoro, Pierro, Naples, 1996, p. 16.
2 Francesca Longo Auricchio traces his career in âLe prime scoperte a Ercolanoâ, Cronache Ercolanese, no. 27, 1997, p. 2.
3 Pagano, Gli antichi ercolanesi, p. 75.
4 The building was a Greek-style theatre built in the age of Augustus. For an idea of its interior finishing, visitors to Rome can see similar coloured marble panelling in situ in the restored interior of the Pantheon, which was built by the son-in-law of Augustus.
5 Pagano, Gli antichi ercolanesi, p. 79. A Greek theatre is open to the skies (though make sure that the sun will not disturb the viewers, Vitruvius had advised). In it the performers stand in the floor space called the orchestra, between stage and the rising tiers for seating. In the otherwise similar Roman theatre, the orchestra served for seating for politicians and important guests.
6 Some of the marble panelling recovered at that time are in the Church of Saint-Etienne at DâElboeuf sur Seine.
7 Cited in Auricchio, âLe prime scoperteâ, p. 3.
8 The statues are known as La Grande and the two Piccole Ercolanesi.

14 Charles de Brosses, Lettres sur Herculaneum, Paris, 1750, p. 276.
15 In Giuseppe Fiorelli, Giornale degli scavi di Pompei, Naples, 1861. Fiorelli, who directed the excavations at Pompeii after Italian unification, quotes from interviews circa 1765 made on site by the then excavations director Franscesco La Vega. Two of the original statues found by Alcubierre still stand in niches in the North Wing courtyard in the former Palazzo Caramanico, now a university institute. Giornale degli scavi di Pompei was the official site daily journal of excavations.
16 Zanni, âLettere di Camillo Paderni ad Allan Ramsayâ, p. 76.
17 Quoted in Christopher Charles Parslow, Rediscovering Antiquity: Karl Weber and the Excavation of Herculaneum, Pompeii and Stabiae, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1995. p. 33. Unless otherwise specified, other details of these early excavations are from the official royal Cronache Ercolanensi; from archaeologist Amedeo Maiuri, Pompei, Libreria dello Stato, Rome, 1931, or âAnno X Era Fascistaâ. Especially regarding Karl Weber, Parslowâs excellent book was the result of five years of research in the Naples archives and is fascinating reading for all serious students of the 18th-century excavations of the Vesuvian area.
18 Michele Ruggiero, Storia degli scavi di Ercolano ricomposta suâ documenti superstiti, Naples, 1885, p. xiii.

A facsimile reprint of this hand-written MS with no date has been published, with the authorization of the Biblioteca dellâEcole de Rome, by Arte tipografica, Naples, 2000. The MS was an 1879 gift to the Ecole Française by a descendant of Napoleon.
CHAPTER III
