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.
