Book Description
Classic Victorian tale of the last days of Pompeii, doomed city that lay at the feet of Mount Vesuvius. From poets to flower-girls, gladiators to Roman tribunes, here is a plausible story of their lives, their loves, and the tragic fate that awaited them. The novel uses its characters to contrast the decadent culture of first-century Rome with both older cultures and coming trends. The protagonist, Glaucus, represents the Greeks who have been subordinated by Rome, and his nemesis Arbaces the still older culture of Egypt. Olinthus is the chief representative of the nascent Christian religion, which is presented favorably but not uncritically.We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience

Book Description
In " The Last Days of Pompeii" by the British writer Bulwer-Lytton, the great eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79 is not the central theme but serves as the backdrop and climax of a work that deals with people and their relationships on the eve of the unexpected tragedy. Written in the 19th century in the romantic style, "The Last Days of Pompeii" offers a rich historical depiction, showcasing dietary habits, clothing, and more complex cultural aspects such as the diversity of people and customs in the city, and the conflicts between Greco-Roman religious beliefs and early Christianity. With characters shrouded in mystery, experiencing the impulses of love and heroism, it is a delightful read that captivates the reader.
