Back to School in Italy
In Italy, people consider the summer, especially August with its vacation days and Ferragosto celebration, magical. No one would take that away from children (or adults for that matter) with reminders of the impending school year. It would be sacrilege. Despite this, however, the kids do have summer homework that is not for the faint of heart. Somehow, though, the students still manage to spend their days on the beach without a care in the world, and they get their homework done, too, even if it’s completed as they walk into school on the first day back.

Rome: The Capital of the Province
The city of Rome is known by many names: Caput mundi (“capital of the world”), la Città Eterna (“the Eternal City”), Limen Apostolorum (“threshold of the Apostles”), and la città dei sette colli (“the city of the seven hills”). During the reign of Emperor Augustus, Rome was the largest city in the world.
