WOZNIAK, M. W., The Novel of Neronian Rome and its Multimedial Transformations. Sienkiewicz's Quo vadis. Oxford University Press, 2020. 350p. Hardback. Series: Classical Presences. His paper is based on intimate acquaintance with the rhythms, leaders and main themes of Polish classicism. This level of insight should appeal greatly to an anglophone audience, who will surely learn much from its observations on the importance of Latinity to the creation of a Polish national image, especially under the Russian and German occupations, and from its analysis of the ways in which the Polish language was masterfully employed to construct an inspirational but believable picture of Neronian Rome.
