The Pantheon is one of the most important architectural monuments
of all time. Thought to have been built by Emperor Hadrian in
approximately 125 AD on the site of an earlier, Agrippan-era
monument, it brilliantly displays the spatial pyrotechnics
emblematic of Roman architecture and engineering. The Pantheon
gives an up-to-date account of recent research on the best
preserved building in the corpus of ancient Roman architecture from
the time of its construction to the twenty-first century. Each
chapter addresses a specific fundamental issue or period pertaining
to the building; together, the essays in this volume shed light on
all aspects of the Pantheon's creation, and establish the
importance of the history of the building to an understanding of
its ancient fabric and heritage, its present state, and its special
role in the survival and evolution of ancient architecture in
modern Rome.
