Описание:
Some critics of the Roman historian Livy (59 B.C.-A.D. 17) have dismissed his work as a compendium of stale narratives and conventional attitudes. Gary B. Miles reveals in Livy's history a creative interplay between traditional stories, contemporary ideological assumptions, and the historian's own perspective at the margins of Roman aristocracy. Drawing on a range of critical approaches, Miles considers Livy's stance as a historian, the ways in which he reworked his sources, and his interpretation of such historical phenomena as recurrence, continuity, and change. Miles focuses on the foundation stories with which Livy begins his account, detecting in Livy's rendition certain original conceptions of historical time including the suggestion that Roman identity and greatness might be preserved indefinitely through successive reenactments of a historical cycle. Miles pays particular attention to two stories—those of the abduction of the Sabine women and of Romulus and Remus, showing how Livy's versions of these traditional narratives—far from leading to a simplistic moral—address unresolved political issues of his day. According to Miles, Livy shows an unusually tenacious willingness to confront dilemmas in historiography and Roman ideology which were commonly ignored or suppressed by both his predecessors and his contemporaries.

Описание: Challenging the common perception of Livy as an apolitical moralist, this book explores the political implications of the first pentad of his history of Rome. Ann Vasaly argues that Livy intended to convey crucial lessons about how the Roman republic flourished in the past and how it could be revived.

Описание: With a single announcement from a herald, all the cities of Greece and Asia had been set free; only an intrepid soul could formulate such an ambitious project, only phenomenal valour and fortune bring it to fruition. Thus Livy describes the reaction to the Roman commander T.Q. Flamininus' proclamation of the freedom of Greece at the Isthmian games near Corinth in 196 BC. Half a century later Greece was annexed as a province of the Romans who burned the ancient city of Corinth to the ground. Books 31 to 40 of Livy's history chart Rome's emergence as an imperial nation and the Romans tempestuous involvement with Greece, Macedonia and the near East in the opening decades of the second century BC; they are our most important source for Graeco-Roman relations in that century. Livy's dramatic narrative includes the Roman campaigns in Spain and against the Gallic tribes of Northern Italy; the flight of Hannibal from Carthage and his death in the East; the debate on the Oppian law; and the Bacchanalian Episode. This is the only unabridged English translation of Books 31 to 40.

Описание:
This is the OCR-endorsed publication from Bloomsbury for the Latin A-Level (Group 2) prescription of Livy's History of Rome, Book I, giving full Latin text, commentary and vocabulary for chapters 53-54, 56 (haec agenti ...)-60, with a detailed introduction that also covers the prescribed text to be read in English.
Livy is one of the great Roman historians. His History of Rome, written in the late-1st century BCE, covered more than 700 years from the foundation of the city to his own era. In this selection he provides an account of the reign of the last King of Rome, Tarquinius Superbus, the rape of Lucretia by the King's son, and the overthrow of the monarchy and establishment of Republican government by Brutus. These dramatic events must be read in the context of Livy's perspective as an author writing at the very beginning of the Imperial period. Resources are available on the Companion Website.
