The city of Pompeii, or Colonia Cornelia Veneria Pompeiorum, the
stage of the action that takes place here, is seen by the author
from the perspective of its integration in the macro-economic
system of the Roman Empire. The characters that take the centre
stage here are slaves, freed slaves and free citizens of low social
status, distinguished from others by the place they occupy within
relations of oppression and exploitation. In the pages that follow,
the author brings the popular Pompeian soul to life, through its
manifestations of love, sexuality, anguish and sadness. The work
examines particular linguistic expression of popular Latin and,
most specifically, through the graffiti written on the walls of a
Roman colonial city, rendered there for the attention of the local
community.
