Markets of Trajan발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

(bouncy piano music) [Voiceover] Perhaps the most powerful emperor in the history of Rome.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

[Voiceover] Well, certainly one of the most popular.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

[Voiceover] And one of the most successful in a military sense, was the Emperor Trajan.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

And he built, not only the largest Imperial Forum in Rome's history.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

[Voiceover] That is the biggest, most magnificent public space in addition to temples and libraries, he also built a vast public bathhouse.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

[Voiceover] But he also built the markets.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

This was, what is in essence, what we would recognize in the modern world, a huge shopping complex, a kinda mall with more than 150 offices and storefronts.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

[Voiceover] As emperor, you could choose to build public buildings, you could build private dwellings, palaces for yourself.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

You can build a combination of both.발음듣기

Not long before Trajan, the Emperor Nero had appropriated vast amounts of land, that belonged to the Roman people, to build his palace, The Domus Aurea.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

So, the emperors that came immediately after him, for the most part, decided to build, instead, projects for the Roman public.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

The Flavians, for example, built the amphitheater, that we call the Colosseum.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

And Trajan continues that tradition by building this massive public project, both the Forum and the adjacent market.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

The market is so interesting to me, because for so long, when I thought of Ancient Rome and architecture, I thought of temples, I thought of Fora, I thought of these large civic spaces.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

And what I didn't realize, was that the Romans were extremely adept at building dense, multistory structures.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

That is, basically, apartment buildings, office blocks and that's what we have here.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

[Voiceover] They had concrete, which allowed them to really shape space, in a way that you can't do, with spaces that are constructed with post and lintel architecture, essentially, columns and roofs.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

For example, here in the markets of Trajan when we enter the central hallway, we look up and we see this very high, wide space, constructed with the use of groin vault, made with brick-faced concrete.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

[Voiceover] So a groin vault is simply a barrel vault, that has been intercepted by a second barrel vault that is perpendicular to it.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

So, in this case, we have the main barrel vault of the hallway, which is quite long, intersected by addition barrel vaults at right angles.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

And, so, you get this kinda X-shaped archway.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

[Voiceover] This was done by Trajan's chief architect, Apollodorus of Damascus an amazing engineer and architect, who also built bridges and other military structures for Trajan.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

Apollodorus of Damascus also built, on either side of this groin vaulted hallway, offices that are supported by barrel vaults and linked to the main hallway by buttresses.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

[Voiceover] What I find so phenomenal about this space, is the amount of light that is let in.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

And this is because the Romans had become so adept at using concrete.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

The ability to give up weight-bearing wall, for apertures, for windows, to let light in, both in the vaulting and in the walls, speaks to the extraordinary level of confidence of the ancient Romans under Trajan.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

[Voiceover] And soon after this, under the Emperor Hadrian, the Romans will build one of the most beautiful, surviving monuments today, and that is the pantheon.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

An enormous, uninterrupted domed space, created with use of concrete.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

[Voiceover] So, here in the Center of Rome we have, intact, one of the most complex urban spaces dating from ancient Rome.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

It is a spectacular display of Roman engineering and gives us a real window, into what Roman life must have been like.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

[Voiceover] The Romans had a nickname for Trajan and that was Optimus Princeps. And that means, best leader.발음듣기

다른 번역문 등록

And standing here, overlooking Trajan's Forum, and standing in the market that he commissioned, we can understand why they would call him that. (bouncy piano music)발음듣기
