In AD 79, Mount Vesuvius erupted and covered a large area south of modern-day Naples in volcanic material. Among the remains of the buried towns, many short Latin texts were found, most of which were inscribed or painted on the walls and columns of houses and public buildings. Until now, a representative anthology of texts from Herculaneum and Stabiae for a wider audience has not been available. This book presents around 250 texts selected for their personal nature and arranged according to their original locations.
