Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a gripping and in-depth exploration of the climate of Rome, Italy. The author, a scholar with decades of experience in the region, dispels several myths surrounding the health and climate of Rome, particularly the long-held belief that the city and its surroundings are inherently unhealthy. Exploring the physical environment, weather patterns, and historical accounts, the author reveals the faulty reasoning and outdated theories that have contributed to these misconceptions. Through meticulous analysis of data and rigorous examination of the often-misinterpreted writings of ancient authors, this book offers a fresh perspective on the true nature of the climate in Rome. The author takes a critical look at the sensationalized accounts of correspondents for influential publications that played a major role in shaping public perception, ultimately arguing that the reality of Rome's climate is far more nuanced than the popular imagination would have us believe. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
