The Novel of Neronian Rome and its Multimedial Transformations: Sienkiewicz's "Quo vadis" is a significant contribution to the field of classical reception in general and specifically on the various permutations of Quo vadis. Whether within an individual chapter or section or the entire collection, teachers, students, and scholars of Nero, ancient Rome on screen, and the reception of Rome in general will find much useful and interesting material.
