Inhalt:
Dieser Band behandelt die Schaffung von häuslichem Raum sowie kulturelle Fragen zu Privatsphäre und Selbstdarstellung in der römischen Antike. Im Zentrum der Diskussion steht eine Gruppe prachtvoller Räume, in denen Grundriss, Architektur und Dekor auf die Anwesenheit von ein oder zwei Betten bzw. Liegen hinweisen. Für Untersuchungen dieser Art bilden die Ausgrabungen von Pompeii mit ihrer Konzentration von auswert- und vergleichbarem Material eine bedeutende Datenquelle. So enthüllen die Ruinen das einzigartige Zusammenspiel von Raum, Einrichtung und Lebensstil und zeigen, wie auf diese Weise die soziale Kommunikation geformt und gefördert wurde.
Inhalt:
This book revolves around the shaping of Roman domestic space and cultural issues of privacy and representativeness. At the core is a set of lavish rooms where layout, architecture and décor bespeak the presence of one or two beds suitable for sleep or daytime rest. For the first time, the author restores the rich contextual readings regarding the dense network of location, architecture, accessibility, lighting, landscape, decoration. In Pompeian houses alcove cubicula were among the key reception rooms. Their images acted as prime symbols of power, as real weapons in strategies of distinction. Luxury, lifestyle, prestige, and the debates around them seem to be primarily related to the design of these comparatively small environments. No other type of room shows such quick adaptation to the most up-to-date trends, owing to a series of real revolutions in fashion first developed for lavish patrician residences, then spread among medium-, later even small-size abodes throughout town. In the realm of domestic life, alcove rooms constitute a sound source for inquiring into the different tastes of Pompeii's various social groups. Defined by financial means and social affluence, their tastes ranged from aesthetics of luxury to an ordinary reception of trivialized clichés.
