- Summary
-
This book, which brings together contributions from historians, art historians and specialists in travel literature, offers a transnational study of the foreign communities living in one of the most cosmopolitan capitals of eighteenth-century Europe: Rome. Composed of three parts, the volume focuses more particularly on the Scottish and French communities and analyses the political, cultural and artistic impact that Scottish, French, English and other nationalities had both on the papal city and their native country as well as on Europe as a whole.
