A title in the Bristol Classical Press Latin texts series, in Latin
with English notes, vocabulary and introduction. Titus Livius lived
from 59 BC to AD 17 and was a native of the northern Italian town
of Patavium. It is generally agreed that he settled in Rome at
about the age of 30, and spent the last forty years of his life in
the composition of his great history. In writing the history of
Rome, Livy sought to emphasize the traits in the national character
that had made Rome great, and to impress upon his readers that Rome
had developed into a great empire under their guidance and
leadership. Livy has been praised for the power of his graphic
descriptions, his dramatic contrivance, his imaginative skill in
the composition of his speeches, his details of character, and
finally his language. He is simultaneously historian, poet and
rhetorician. This edition should prove useful to students and
undergraduates.
