Because other urban changes during Hadrian's principate (A.D. 117-138) left less visible traces, however, few people realize how powerfully he transformed the capital city not only by erecting these and other monumental edifices but also by renovating buildings, even entire districts, and by reorganizing the building industry and neighborhood life. Mary Taliaferro Boatwright compiles and assesses the varied evidence for Hadrian's buildings and his administrative changes and evaluates his effect on the capital city in a topographical and historical context. A comprehensive catalogue follows the illustrated text.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Taliaferro Boatwright\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0691002185\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780691002187\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Princeton University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/21\/1989\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.89h x 7.44w x 0.92d","brand":"Mary Taliaferro Boatwright","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059472691455,"sku":"9780691002187","price":63.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_341d6d33-040a-4bb9-9d76-c710a750ccd8.jpg?v=1685058436","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hadrian-and-the-city-of-mary-t-boatwright-9780691002187","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
