  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 มิ.ย. 2012
  • A virtual tour of Hadrian's Villa using a 3D digital model of the villa created under the direction of Dr. Bernard Frischer. The ruins of Hadrian's Villa, in the town of Tivoli, near Rome, is spread over an area of approximately 250 acres. Many of the structures were designed by the Emperor Hadrian who ruled from 117 until his death in 138 C.E. This virtual rendering is based on current archeological research and has been created in consultation with art historians, archaeologists, and museum curators with expertise in this area. Please note, a few features are necessarily assumptions based on the best available evidence. Speakers: Dr. Bernard Frischer and Dr. Beth Harris. Created by Beth Harris and Steven Zucker.

    Thank you for the video! I guess Emperor Hadrian could not say "I did smth in 117 AD", but rather in 753+117 AUC (from the foundation of Rome). The way we count years from AD appeared only in the middle ages.

    I wish the 3D world had more color; because I doubt that the real walls were all dark gray. Also we are shown several times a rotunda-like structure (see 1:51); I guess the dining hall. I was waiting and hoping for the 3D recreation of this scene, but no. But I did love seeing the marble floors.

    Thanks so much for the informative virtual tour!... I see the woman's name accompanying Hadrian on the tour is "Beth"? Wasn't Hadrian's wife and Roman Empress "Vibia Sabina"? If so, I would imagine by his side would be his favorite companion: the Bythian, Antinous of which you depict his statue. Hadrian's cavalier attitude about Apollodorus' execution, and those who ultimately disagreed with him, was really an eye opener.

    The roleplay was very cute and interesting. Dr. Harris' avatar was lovely. Chocolate women (such as I am) have little representation in these videos thus far, so I appreciated that detail among many others. I think the Isis sculpture was the one I was hoping to see again from the Dying Gaul sculpture's video, so that worked out nicely. :)

    • @HurdyGurdyProject
      @HurdyGurdyProject 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well, what a nice reply. Thanks for that. I'll be looking up Marcus Vitruvius Pollo, and his links to Leonardo DaVinci for sure. Do you suppose that the Hearst Castle, and the artwork contained therein, reflects a desire by Hearst to portray himself as some kind of "nouveau" Caesar, ruling over a continuation of Rome via America, that he manipulates with his newspaper empire and vast wealth? There are a number of marble and bronze busts of Julius Caesar in the castle. And we know that absolute power corrupts absolutely. Orson Welles apparently had little love for Hearst, as exemplified by the outrageous film, "Citizen Kane." Welles' contempt no doubt sprang from Hearst's "Yellow Journalism," where truth was sacrificed for sensationalism, as exhibited by Hearst's provocative coverage of the Spanish-American War--a war that might not have been unnecessary, and was engineered by American covert operations and propaganda.

      @ultimateclassic4092 9 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Seoirse Ui Duic Rome's fall is more complex than that. Christianity is just one of many factors. A mixture of different causes and problems is to blame. The biggest is the lack of powerful emperors to secure the frontiers. Military strength became weak, and the economy began to collapse, due to poor management. Christianity outgrew pagan families, and even the empire itself became to large to effectively manage. The crises of the third century helped to start the end also. When Augustus ruled, he ushered in the Pax Romana, which lasted roughly two hundred years. If you don't have good rulers, you start to have failure. Another reason could be that Rome had used up so many resource that shortages were very common, which killed off a large percentage of the population, and helped weaken the empire. By the time the Germanic tribes entered Rome, it had been a disaster for roughly a hundred years.

      +EmpireGaming Actually no Christianity is one of the main if not biggest factor that destroyed Rome.When Christianity rose to power it sucked Rome dry and became a theocracy.It quickly over less than 60 years Christianity started the. large scale persecution and killing of pagans.Even in Marcus Aurelius the Roman empire had over 50 million people so that's a by far incorrect statement on your part
