Notes and topics
Delighted with Rome. His uncle the monsignor acts as his cicerone. Ruins. Miss Dawson. Stiff inartistic aristocrats with him: their icy reserve—couldn't have married one: "host of smart relations here". Made friends with German family: the youth "at first took me for an Italian, I suppose because of my lively excitable manner".
Domesticity vs. problems. Wouldn't study pictures for their own sakes. Miss Dawson considers him a barbarian.
