Abstract

The After-Season at Rome
June 12, 1873 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information on role of foreigners in Rome. Rome has passed so completely for the winter months into the hands of the barbarians that estimable character, the quiet observer, finds it constantly harder to concentrate his attention. He has an irritating sense of his impressions being perverted and adulterated; the venerable visage of Rome betrays an unbecoming eagerness to see itself : mirrored in English, American, German eyes. The smile of Rome, and its intense suggestiveness to those who are willing to ramble irresponsibly and take things as they come, is ushered in with the first breath of spring, and it grows and grows with the advancing season, till it wraps the whole place in its tenfold charm.
