This work by archaeologist Amedeo Maiuri presents a lyrical and scholarly portrait of the island of Capri, blending travel‑memoir, archaeological reflection and local history. Through a series of impressionistic “breviary” essays, the author explores the island’s ancient monuments, mythic landscapes and modern charm, revealing layers of Roman imperial villas, Greek influences and Mediterranean atmosphere. The text offers both descriptive passages and historical commentary, emphasising the continuity between Capri’s classical past and its 20th‑century identity. As such, it contributes to cultural‑heritage literature, bringing out the island’s unique interplay of archaeology, nature and artifice.
