About this event
Ancient historian Martin Zimmermann and archaeologist Hermann Parzinger discuss Zimmermann's book on the ruined cities of antiquity — Troy, Mycenae, Nineveh, Pompeii — and the argument that our romantic melancholy about ruins is an entirely modern invention.
Why we picked it
Two heavyweight scholars in conversation about Troy and Pompeii, free and in the city centre.
