Talk:Flavian Palace

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The source book for the picture of the Domus Flavia was published in 1928, but copyrighted in 1927 by Adolph Bruderhausen. I did a search for his name on familysearch.org and found only a handful of Bruderhausens in the US--all in New York state where the book was published. There is one Adolf Bruderhausen who lived 26 Oct 1880 to August 1962. Fifty years plus 1962 is 2002. The new copyright laws didn't come into affect until 2004, so this picture is public domain IF I have the right Adolf/Adolph Bruderhausen. Perhaps, he spelled his name Adolph to avoid the similarity with Adolf Hitler. Californicus 04:28, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Solid artical[edit]

You give a good overview of the layout of the palace and the picture was helpful. I was hoping that you could include something on the present state of the palace, and also maybe oneor two important events that took place there. The article is well formated and easy to read and understand, good job! Jim944928 21:49, 14 May 2007 (UTC) Jim Larson[reply]

This is a very good article -- I think the picture is great, and the article is very well-written and informative. Very thorough article, but maybe you could talk a little more about what makes it important (like what sets it apart from his other building projects?), other than being built for the emperor? I agree with Jim that if you could find some little anecdote about something that happened there, that it might help a bit. Also, I liked the quote from the poet as a primary source -- very well done! --EAFEAF 00:16, 15 May 2007 (UTC) (E.Freechack)[reply]

The overview is clear, but this might need more explanation of terms for a non-scholar, or at least good links to relevant terms. Your use of sources is very strong. Anisekstrong 04:47, 1 June 2007 (UTC)Anise K. Strong[reply]
