The AIA Spokane Society’s “Revealing Pompeii” lecture series has been replaced by a webinar series. This installment is “Living with the Dead: Urbanism in the Suburbs of Pompeii,” presented by Dr. Allison L. C. Emmerson. The lecture examines the suburbs of Pompeii, seeking to reconstruct such neighborhoods, and how the tombs of the dead tied into patterns of daily life and served as a factor which led to the development of the suburbs. Dr. Emmerson is an assistant professor in the Department of Classical Studies at Tulane University. She is an ACLS Fellow and the recipient of a Rome Prize in Ancient Studies. More information at:
