Sommario/riassunto

In 2007, during the archaeological excavations for the construction of a metro station in the Piazza Venetia of Rome, two auditoria were discovered that date to the first half of the second century AD. Some archaeologists identified them as part of Hadrian's Athenaeum, the first great Roman academic institution that is mentioned in classical sources. This book is the result of a thorough analysis covering topography, architecture, and philology, with the goal of revealing the function of the structures, which could have formed part of the Atheneum or, perhaps, part of a judicial institution integrated into the complex of tribunals of the Forum of Trajan.

Sommario/riassunto

Modern societies demand high and varied mobility, which in turn requires a complex transport system adapted to social needs that guarantees the movement of people and goods in an economically efficient and safe way, but all are subject to a new environmental rationality and the new logic of the paradigm of sustainability. From this perspective, an efficient and flexible transport system that provides intelligent and sustainable mobility patterns is essential to our economy and our quality of life. The current transport system poses growing and significant challenges for the environment, human health, and sustainability, while current mobility schemes have focused much more on the private vehicle that has conditioned both the lifestyles of citizens and cities, as well as urban and territorial sustainability. Transport has a very considerable weight in the framework of sustainable development due to environmental pressures, associated social and economic effects, and interrelations with other sectors. The continuous growth that this sector has experienced over the last few years and its foreseeable increase, even considering the change in trends due to the current situation of generalized crisis, make the challenge of sustainable transport a strategic priority at local, national, European, and global levels. This Special Issue will pay attention to all



those research approaches focused on the relationship between evolution in the area of transport with a high incidence in the environment from the perspective of efficiency.
