Its Crowded And Noisy Streets, The Height Of Its Buildings, The Number And Wealth Of Its Churches And Palaces, The Celebrated Natural Beauty Of Its Location, The Many Antiquities Scattered In Its Environs, The Fiery Volcano Looming Over It, The Drama Of Its People's Devotions, The Size And Liveliness - To Put It Mildly - Of Its Plebs, All Made Naples Renowned And At Times Notorious Across Europe. The New Essays In This Volume Aim Tointroduce This Important, Fascinating, And Bewildering City To Readers Unfamiliar With Its History. Edited By Tommaso Astarita.
