Thus, the term was born. During the roaring twenties a whole generation of American writers left the US for Europe, and for more than a decade a lot of them considered the French Riviera their second home. That’s where they met the great names of modern art such as Picasso, Leger or Matisse, as well as some of their most renowned fellow countrymen, generating a unique artistic dynamic. While the first summer season was established in 1925, they gave the Riviera the face we know today. We’ll give you the opportunity to discover the seaside from Fréjus to Antibes, passing by the Gold Corniche, Cannes and Golfe-Juan, on the path of F. Scott Fitzgerald, E. Hemingway, J. Dos Passos, J. Mac Kay, Charlie Chaplin and many others. A cultural tour, accessible to everyone, as well as a journey through the beauty of the French Riviera. Discover the house where “Great Gatsby” was written, the Hemingway beach in Mandelieu, the district inspired by Miami beach in Antibes, also the roman port founded by Julius Caesar, the most famous coastal road in Europe and much more.

  • Calendar of Roman Events
    Introduction Steve Worboys and I began this calendar in 1980 or 1981 when we discovered that the exact dates of many events survive from Roman antiquity, the most famous being the ides of March murder of Caesar. Flipping through a few books on Roman history revealed a handful of dates, and we believed that to fill every day of the year would certainly be impossible. From 1981 until 1989 I kept the calendar, adding dates as I ran across them. In 1989 I typed the list into the computer and we began again to plunder books and journals for dates, this time recording sources. Since then I have worked and reworked the Calendar, revising old entries and adding many, many more. The Roman Calendar The calendar was reformed twice, once by Caesar in 46 BC and later by Augustus in 8 BC. Each of these reforms is described in A. K. Michels’ book The Calendar of the Roman Republic. In an ordinary pre-Julian year, the number of days in each month was as follows: 29 January 31 May 29 September 28 February 29 June 31 October 31 March 31 Quintilis (July) 29 November 29 April 29 Sextilis (August) 29 December. The Romans did not number the days of the months consecutively. They reckoned backwards from three fixed points: The kalends, the nones, and the ides. The kalends is the first day of the month. For months with 31 days the nones fall on the 7th and the ides the 15th. For other months the nones fall on the 5th and the ides on the 13th.

Title: The urbanization of the North-Western provinces of the Roman Empire : a juridical and functional approach to town life in Roman Gaul, Germania inferior and Britain Issue Date: 2018-10-17 CHAPTER 4: THE SELF-GOVERNING CITIES: ELEMENTS AND RHYTHMS OF URBANIZATION Introduction Provincial civitas capitals, as had been the case with the cities in the Italian peninsula, required structures that would allow the cives to participate in public and political life. This does not translate into the Romans forcing indigenous communities to develop civic spaces.423 Rather, as Emilio Gabba would say, the Roman government was expecting and encouraging these new semi-autonomous centres and their elites to provide the citizens with suitable areas and buildings where they could fulfil their newly acquired rights and obligations.424 In this sense, we can understand why the process of urbanization in the north-western provinces followed some common lines, consequential to their political integration in the Empire.425 At the same time, it is important to remember that this process took place over decades and even centuries. For example, in Belgica, a large majority of cities were not equipped with public buildings until a considerable time had elapsed after they were conquered and annexed to the Roman Empire. Most of the public structures began to be built from AD 50 onwards. In Flavian times construction of imposing infrastructure for public use began on an unprecedented scale. It would reach its full dimensions only in the mid-2nd century AD.426 The relatively slow pace of urbanization that characterized the early years of the north-western provinces suggests that sustainable revenues were essential to the development and progress of cities.

  • Travels Through France and Italy
    Travels Through France And Italy By T. Smollett Travels Through France And Italy I Many pens have been burnished this year of grace for the purpose of celebrating with befitting honour the second centenary of the birth of Henry Fielding; but it is more than doubtful if, when the right date occurs in March 1921, anything like the same alacrity will be shown to commemorate one who was for many years, and by such judges as Scott, Hazlitt, and Charles Dickens, considered Fielding's complement and absolute co-equal (to say the least) in literary achievement. Smollett's fame, indeed, seems to have fallen upon an unprosperous curve. The coarseness of his fortunate rival is condoned, while his is condemned without appeal. Smollett's value is assessed without discrimination at that of his least worthy productions, and the historical value of his work as a prime modeller of all kinds of new literary material is overlooked. Consider for a moment as not wholly unworthy of attention his mere versatility as a man of letters. Apart from Roderick Random and its successors, which gave him a European fame, he wrote a standard history, and a standard version of Don Quixote (both of which held their ground against all comers for over a century). He created both satirical and romantic types, he wrote two fine- spirited lyrics, and launched the best Review and most popular magazine of his day. He was the centre of a literary group, the founder to some extent of a school of professional writers, of which strange and novel class, after the "Great Cham of Literature," as he called Dr.
