This book treats the Pantheon from the unique perspective of its construction history, survival, and reception through history. Each chapter is a self-standing investigation of a particular architectural aspect of the building or a historical period during its survival to explain how the Pantheon has been understood over the centuries, why it looks as it does today, and why it has endured as an architectural model.
