  • Rome Tourist Information
    Rome As capital of the Roman Empire, the Papal States and Italy, Rome truly is the "Eternal City". One of the world's most elegant capitals the layers of history and the city's sheer excess of beauty can prove overwhelming to the unsuspecting visitor. This is a city best explored on foot, with every corner offering an overlooked treasure or unforgettable panorama. Roman columns soar up aimlessly next to medieval basilicas, the sound of water splashing in fountains fills the air in front of Renaissance palaces and exuberant Romans jostle through multi-coloured markets and winding cobbled streets. Breathe the air of the Caesars in the Roman forum, stroll through the menacing Colosseum, marvel at the splendours of the Vatican Palace - and you will wonder if this can be the capital of a modern industrial nation or whether you have stepped back into the pages of history. But around these relics of history Rome is still evolving. It's at the cutting edge of fashion and cuisine and is one of the most popular shopping destinations on Earth. So prepare to soak up history and modernity in equal measure in one of Europe's most fascinating cities. Sightseeing Rome is a work of art in itself and you'll never tire of wandering its streets and plazas, discovering new and ever greater architectural gems with every turn. Seeing the many treasures the city contains would take a lifetime, but there are several highlights that remain essential on a trip to the Eternal City. The Roma Archeologia Card costs EUR20 and is valid for 7-days.

    UC Berkeley Room One Thousand Title Water's Pilgrimage in Rome Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7hq5t8mm Journal Room One Thousand, 3(3) ISSN 2328-4161 Author Rinne, Katherine Publication Date 2015 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Katherine Rinne Illustration by Rebecca Sunter Water’s Pilgrimage in Rome “If I were called in To construct a religion I should make use of water.” From Philip Larkin, “Water,” 1964 Rome is one of the world’s most hallowed pilgrimage destinations. Each year, the Eternal City’s numinous qualities draw millions of devout Christians to undertake a pilgrimage there just as they have for nearly two millennia. Visiting the most venerable sites, culminating with St. Peter’s, the Mother Church of Catholicism, the processional journey often reinvigorates faith among believers. It is a cleansing experience for them, a reflective pause in their daily lives and yearly routines. Millions more arrive in Rome with more secular agendas. With equal zeal they set out on touristic, educational, gastronomic, and retail pilgrimages. Indeed, when in Rome, I dedicate at least a full and fervent day to “La Sacra Giornata di Acquistare le Scarpe,” the holy day of shoe shopping, when I visit each of my favorite stores like so many shrines along a sacred way. Although shoes are crucial to our narrative and to the completion of any pilgrimage conducted on Opposite: The Trevi Fountain, 2007. Photo by David Iliff; License: CC-BY-SA 3.0. 27 Katherine Rinne foot, our interest in this essay lies elsewhere, in rededicating Rome’s vital role as a city of reflective pilgrimage by divining water’s hidden course beneath our feet (in shoes, old or new) as it flows out to public fountains in an otherwise parched city.

  • The Destruction of Ancient Rome
    MISCELLANEOUS. 237 labors a scientific coloring, and has consulted and critically discussed the psycho- logical and metaphysical literature of our day bearing on his topic. He is espe- cially concerned with the metaphysical proof of immortality from spirituality, and believes that in the belief in life eternal we have not an affair of sentiment, but one that admits of sound metaphysical demonstration. He has accordingly pro- ceeded psychologically and philosophically to establish that proof. The manifes- tations of our intellectual and voluntary activity are spiritual ; therefore, the ulti- mate source of these operations is likewise spiritual ; these are the phenomena, and consequently they presuppose a substance ; whence follows the reality of a spir- itual substance, of an indestructible and necessarily immortal self. His argument is founded upon the psychological study of the nature of human thought and the ego. Teleology is invoked only as the complement of the metaphysical proof. 11. THE DESTRUCTION OF ANCIENT ROME. At the southern extremity of the famed Palatine hill in Rome may still be seen the remains of the magnificent palace of the Emperor Septimius Severus towering in reminiscence of its ancient grandeur some 160 feet above the level of the modern streets. By measurements made to-day and compared with the de- scriptions and drawings of those who saw the Palatine in a better state of preserva- tion, it has been estimated by archaeologists that the original palace was 490 feet long, 390 feet wide, and 160 feet high. To-day it has almost completely dis- appeared, and only a few pieces of crumbling wall are left here and there against the cliff to tell the tale.

  • Neoliberal Rome - the Role of Tourism
    Article Neoliberal Rome - The Role of Tourism Roberta Gemmiti Department of Methods and Models for Economics, Territory and Finance, Sapienza University of Rome, 00161 Rome, Italy; [email protected] Received: 26 April 2019; Accepted: 18 Jun 2019; Published: 20 June 2019 Abstract: The primary objective of this paper is to analyze the main characteristics of recent tourism policies in Rome by describing the local modalities through which the neoliberal approach to urban strategies has been implemented. The first section highlights some general features of the city of Rome and its tourism, which are particularly useful for understanding the specificities of neoliberal tourism policies. The paper then proceeds to describe the most clearly defined neoliberal period of the city from 1993 to 2008, when the new Master Plan was drawn up to establish new policies and projects for tourism. The period that followed 2008 was marked by the gradual withdrawal of public action, which on the other hand has left ample freedom to the forces of tourism and globalization. Keywords: neoliberal policies; Rome; urban tourism; center-periphery; Airbnb 1. Introduction Neoliberalism is a powerful critical concept, which has gained much attention since the turn of the 21st century among scholars, journalists and politicians, and is rapidly becoming well-known and largely debated within the social sciences (e.g., Brenner and Theodore 2002; Larner 2003; Castree 2010; Jessop 2013; Springer et al. 2016). According to Harvey’s (2005) well-known definition, neoliberalism is a theory of political economy which claims “human wellbeing can be advanced by liberating individual entrepreneurship and skills within an institutional framework characterized by strong property rights, free market and free trade” (ibid., p.
