Books XXXI - XXXIII of Livy cover the period of the second
Macedonian War, the critical years which marked the beginning of
Rome's domination of the Hellenistic World. This new paperback
edition of Briscoe's standard commentary (the first on these books
since the nineteenth century) is largely historical, but it also
attempts to deal with stylistic matters. Where Polybius survives
Livy's version is compared in detail with its source. Introductory
sections contain discussions of Livy's use of his sources, his
language and style, the speeches, the political situation in Rome
at the time of the Second Macedonian War, and Livy's account of the
origins of the war.
