  • Villa Jovis a Capri (Napoli) *
    Archeoastronomia nelle ville imperiali romane: Villa Jovis a Capri (Napoli) * Marina De Franceschini (Archeologa, [email protected] , sito web: www.villa-adriana.net ) Giuseppe Veneziano (Osservatorio Astronomico di Genova, [email protected] , sito web: www.oagenova.it ) Ricostruzione ottocentesca della Villa Jovis, sull’isola di Capri, eseguita dall’architetto tedesco Carl Weichardt (1846-1906), tratta dall’opera Das Schloß des Tiberius und andere Römerbauten auf Capri , 1900 . * Il presente studio è stato presentato al XII Convegno Nazionale della Società Italiana di Archeoastronomia (S.I.A.) tenuto ad Albano Laziale, il 5-6 ottobre 2012 ed è in corso di stampa negli Atti relativi. Da tempo immemorabile l’isola di Capri è uno dei luoghi più belli del mondo; fra i primi ad apprezzarla vi fu l’imperatore Augusto che, come narra Cassio Dione 1, visitò l’isola nel 29 a.C., durante il viaggio di ritorno a Roma dopo la battaglia di Azio. La bellezza del sito unita ad un prodigio favorevole lo spinse a cedere alla città di Neapolis l’isola Aenaria (l’attuale Ischia) per avere in cambio Capri, che divenne così proprietà imperiale 2. Augusto scelse Capri per la villeggiatura estiva e la chiamò Apragòpolis , cioè “città del dolce far niente”. Il suo successore Tiberio invece la elesse a propria residenza permanente, quando decise di abbandonare Roma; Tacito racconta che vi possedeva ben dodici ville 3. Le enormi dimensioni dell’edificio di cui trattiamo provano che era il più importante dell’intera isola, ragion per cui da secoli è stato identificato con la « villa quae vocatur Jovis » di cui parla Svetonio 4.

In his biographical work The Lives of the Caesars, the literary artist Gaius ​ ​ Suetonius Tranquillus (c. 69-122 CE) provides a concise, informative, and illustrative depiction of the reigns of these two emperors. Suetonius’ particular literary technique and style used in the narration for both Nero and Caligula contributes to an enduring legacy of madness and depravity that has been influential in our understanding of these two rulers well into the modern age.

This gives you the freedom to focus on the things that matter to you—no group, no guide, and no set schedule to stand in the way of enjoying your adventure, your way. Overview One of Italy’s most blessed regions, the Sorrentine Peninsula and nearby Isle of Capri seemingly have it all—history, elegance, authentic villages, dramatic coastal scenery, and untouched wild places—all interconnected by a wide network of walking trails that remain just out of view of the more touristed places. From Sorrento, Capri, Positano, and Ravello, you slip out of elegant town squares into a landscape of age-old terraces of lemon and olive groves and onto high ridges with sweeping views of the sparkling Mediterranean. You’ll explore at your own pace, wandering through whitewashed villages and climbing hillside trails dotted with wild herbs to stunning clifftop promontories before reaching sumptuous villa gardens. Elegant hotels capture the glamour and old-world style that have drawn visitors for centuries on a Grand Tour, an artist’s retreat, or a jet-setting jaunt.
