Thurmond’s From Vines to Wines in Classical Rome is the first general handbook on winemaking in Rome in over 100 years. In this work, Thurmond surveys the biology of the vine, the protohistory, history, viticulture, winemaking, distribution and modes of consumption of wine in classical Rome. He uses a close reading of the relevant Latin texts along with a careful survey of relevant archaeology and comparative practices from modern viticulture and oenology to elucidate this essential element of Roman culture.Wine and wine makingItalyViticultureItalyWine and wine makingViticulture663/.200945Thurmond David L610001NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910163122403321From vines to wines in classical Rome2894147UNINA
