This work, "The Pretended Discovery of a Roman Bath at Bath," delves into a historical controversy surrounding the purported rediscovery of a Roman bath in Bath. Attributed to Emanuel Green, the text critiques a publication by Charles Edward Davis entitled 'The Bathes of Bathe's Ayde in the Reign of Charles II'.
Green's remarks offer insights into the architectural and historical context of Bath, England, inviting readers to consider the varying interpretations and debates that shaped the understanding of its Roman past in the 19th century. This volume offers valuable perspectives on historical interpretation, architectural claims, and the academic disputes of its time, making it a compelling read for those interested in the history of Bath, Roman archaeology, and architectural history.
