520 _aPompeii Awakened tells of the re-emergence in 1755 of an evocative, vanished world, which profoundly inspired a later age - from its arts and architecture to its science, sex, and religion. The story of Pompeii lies not just in its uniquely preserved classical remains but also in its extraordinary impact on Europe's cultural imagination. Judith Harris brings the doomed city vibrantly to life. Harris has flown over Pompeii in a hot-air balloon, delved into ancient diaries and descended deep underground to assess the latest excavations. As the sleeping city re-awakens in her hands, Pompeii casts its spell once more, bewitching those who seek to unearth its buried secrets.
