Summary: "Pompei e le sue rovine, Vol. 2" by Pier Ambrogio Curti is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume continues to explore the ruins of Pompeii, delving into the cultural and social aspects of the ancient city, particularly focusing on its theaters. The narrative likely emphasizes the significance of theatrical performances in Pompeii’s public life, including details about the structure and function of the comedic theater, known as the Odeum.

Curti describes the dimensions and layout of the Odeum, detailing its capacity and the seating arrangements for different social classes, reflecting the societal hierarchy of the time.
