Abstract

"The Romans developed sophisticated methods for managing hygiene, including aqueducts for moving water from one place to another, sewers for removing used water from baths and runoff from walkways and roads, and public and private latrines. Through the archeological record, graffiti, sanitation-related paintings, and literature, Ann Olga Koloski-Ostrow explores this little-known world of bathrooms and sewers, offering unique insights into Roman sanitation, engineering, urban planning and development, hygiene, and public health. Focusing on the cities of Pompeii, Herculaneum, Ostia, and Rome, Koloski-Ostrow's work challenges common perceptions of Romans' social customs, beliefs about health, tolerance for filth in their cities, and attitudes toward privacy. In charting the complex history of sanitary customs from the late republic to the early empire, Koloski-Ostrow reveals the origins of waste removal technologies and their implications for urban health, past and present"--Provided by publisher.

Abstract

Vitale pour toute société humaine, l'eau est pour les Romains le symbole même de leur existence-depuis que Romulus, le fondateur, a été sauvé des eaux du Tibre-ainsi que de leur pouvoir sur les forces naturelles et sur les hommes. Ce livre montre comment ils ont répondu aux nécessités immédiates, mais aussi joint l'utile au plaisir, le futile à la grandeur. Avec une précision qui surprendra les ingénieurs et une simplicité dont les profanes lui sauront gré, l'auteur retrace la quête obstinée de techniques souterraines et aériennes, qui permettent de capter les eaux dans les lointaines montagnes, de les conduire jusqu'aux villes, de les purifier, de les conserver et de les évacuer. On rencontre ici les Romains dans leur intimité, on entend leurs bavardages autour des fontaines, ou dans les latrines, on surprend leur admiration pour les empereurs évergètes qui leur offrent des thermes somptueux, mais on y trouve aussi les calculs des ingénieurs, leurs tâtonnements, leurs échecs et leurs réussites, et surtout la volonté de puissance d'un peuple qui, pour maîtriser la source de la vie, jetait à travers les plaines et par?dessus les val-lées profondes les arches puissantes et élégantes de ses aqueducs.
