The book starts with an anthology of more than 60 inscriptions at 35 locations in Rome. By translating these texts, the reader becomes acquainted with a variety of Latin inscriptions, easy and difficult, pompous and personal, from Scipio Barbatus to Mussolini, in the most interesting places in Rome. The anthology is followed by four thematic chapters, in which Latin texts and Dutch translations are given of inscriptions on obelisks, memorial columns, fountains and memorial plaques pertaining to floods of the river Tiber.
