A blog for Elon University's 2012 Winter Term course Italy's Heritage: Past is Present. Follow us here as we engage Italy's past from the ancient era to the postmodern present. Our course reporters will post regular updates commenting on how our course readings, on-site visits, group discussion, and the classroom community shape our understanding of the past--and the present.

Facist Rome
Today we took the metro to Eur which is just outside of Rome to experience facism in Rome. One of the buildings we saw was a square colisseum and many of the students took the long trek up the stairs to get a closer look. We also when to a museum which had a model of ancient Rome dating back to 100BC. We had the afternoon to ourselves so Hannah, Rhi and I went shopping around Trevi Fountain! On our walk back to the hotel we saw a Michael Jackson impersonator and he was actually very talented at the moon walk!
