The Pantheon (/ˈpænθiən/ or US /ˈpænθiɒn/; Latin: Pantheon,] from Greek Πάνθεον meaning "every god") is a building in Rome, Italy, on the site of an earlier building commissioned by Marcus Agrippa during the reign of Augustus (27 BC – 14 AD). The present building was completed by the emperor Hadrian and probably dedicated about 126 AD. He retained Agrippa's original inscription, which has confused its date of construction.
The building is circular with a portico of large granite Corinthian columns (eight in the first rank and two groups of four behind) under a pediment. A rectangular vestibule links the porch to the rotunda, which is under a coffered concrete dome, with a central opening (oculus) to the sky. Almost two thousand years after it was built, the Pantheon's dome is still the world's largest unreinforced concrete dome.[3] The height to the oculus and the diameter of the interior circle are the same, 43.3 metres (142 ft).
It is one of the best-preserved of all Ancient Roman buildings, in large part because it has been in continuous use throughout its history, and since the 7th century, the Pantheon has been used as a church dedicated to "St. Mary and the Martyrs" (Latin: Santa Maria ad Martyres) but informally known as "Santa Maria Rotonda". The square in front of the Pantheon is called Piazza della Rotonda.
Omaggio a Vittorio Emanuele II di Savoia
Va, pensiero, sull'ali dorate
Va, ti posa sui clivi, sui colli
Ove olezzano tepide e molli
L'aure doci, del suolo natal!
Del giordano le rive saluta
Di sionne le torri atterrate
Oh, mia patria si belle perduta
Oh, membranza si cara e fatal!
Arpa d'or dei fatidici vati
Perche muta dal salince pendi?
Le memorie nel petto raccendi
Ci favella del tempo che fu!
O simile di solima ai fati
Traggi un suono di crudo lamento
O t'ispiri il signore un concento
Che ne infonda al partire virtu!
Che ne infonda al partire virtu!
Che ne infonda al partire virtu!r
Al partire virtu!
