Abstract

Using a vast range of sources and methods, from art history, epigraphy, palaeography, geology, archaeology, and architectural history, to close reading of contemporary texts in prose and verse, this book presents a detailed 'object biography', contextualising Hadrian's epitaph in its historical and physical setting at St Peter's over 800 years.
