Roman Villas
Author: J.T. Smith
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134705352
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 505
Book Description
Roman Villas explores the social structures of the Roman world by analysing the plans of buildings of all sizes from slightly Romanized farms to palaces. The ways in which the rooms are grouped together; how they intercommunicate; and the ways in which individual rooms and the house are approached, reveal various social patterns, which question traditional ideas about the Roman family and household. J. T. Smith argues that virtually all houses were occupied by groups of varying composition, challenging the received wisdom that they were single family houses whose size reflected only the owner's wealth and number of servants. Roman Villas provides a meticulously documented and scholarly examination of the relationship between the living quarters of the Roman and their social and economic development which introduces a new area in Roman studies and a corpus of material for further analysis. The inclusion of almost 500 ground plans, drawn to a uniform scale, allows the reader to compare the similarities and differences between house structure as well as effectively illustrating the arguments.

The Writer's Mindset
Author: Chris Hall
Publisher: Heinemann Educational Books
ISBN: 9780325118635
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
"Chris Hall uses mindset language (optimism and persistence, thinking flexibly and staying open to new learning, empathy, transfer, risk-taking, metacognition) to shift writing instruction back to the writer's identity. Revision isn't a stage of the writing process but an awareness that's present through all stages of writing: What did I think before and what do I think right now? How do I reconcile those two ideas to create something good? Cultivating this awareness leads not only to students' greater agency but also skill growth (as Chris's student examples show)"--
