This work offers a new (and probably unexpected) vision of Rome, together with its historical and cultural heritage. It renders vivid, at least partially, the fatal fragmentation of Rome's history, illustrated through exemplary photographic images and brief captions, sometimes also by anecdotes typical of the Roman wit that stimulate one's fantasy ... as if observing the fascinating extemporaneous urban scene through a key hole. This elusiveness leaves room to the aporia of the metropolis that poses itself as the insurmountable horizon of our imagination. In this horizon we nurture the hope that Rome, even if not comprehensible in its very substance, can at least be evoked in the riddle of its hidden marks. This game of allusions and continuous shifting of meanings finally invites the reader to recreate his own meaning, a richer and more complex one.
