These papers investigate the representation, symbolism and discursive functions of urban space. The focus is on texts in which Rome and other ancient cities play a prominent role. Continuities and interruptions in the history of‘cityscaping’ are revealed by drawing on modern classics of writing the city. Contributions from the fields of archaeology and film studies supplement the literary investigation of how images of the city are moulded.
