Salammbô. Rome but it is closely interwoven"It was in Megara, a suburb of Carthage, in the gardens of Hamilcar." The first sentence of Salammb, a novel by Gustave Flaubert published in 1862, marked the beginning of a unique experience for generations of readers. In a demiurgic attempt to restore the lost city, the writer stages human passions and gives birth to a whirlwind of images and sensations that will unleash the imagination of artists from the end of the 19th century to the present day.
