The project begins at the Pantheon. Using it as a fulcrum for resuming a project on the “monument in the city” as explored in my book After the City, I wish to assume my role as “the wanderer,” one who attempts, by roaming through the surrounding city, archival materials, and modern texts, to invent an expanded field that has been both erased by history—despite Agrippa’s claim in the inscription on the façade, we will never know if Hadrian was the architect or just the bauherr—and left out of my original text. In this expanded field using writing, drawing, and design I will “write a book” beyond common conventions.
