Extractions: Welcome to Livy's Love Graphics, in memory of my sweet angel, Olivia Katherine Cartagena-King . When my Livy died, my heart broke into two. I set out on the web to find the most special graphics for her memorial, only to find a great disappointment. While I came across many wonderful graphic sites, it seemed nothing was good enough for my Livy. That is when I decided with years of graphic practice to make my own graphics for Livy's memorial site. After many tries her graphics turned out prefect. I know as a mother of an angel, how important finding the right graphics for your memorial is. That is why it is my heart's desire to help you in anyway make your child's memory live on forever by offering not only graphic sets to parents of angels, yet also custom graphics and memorials. Even for fathers, grandparents, sisters, brothers, mothers and friends.

Extractions: Livy enthusiasts have been fortunate that there has been a substantial rise of interest in their author in the last few years and many major works of scholarship on the historian have been produced. Mary Jaeger's book builds particularly upon the recent interest in the relationship between Latin literature and the city of Rome - how a literary text represents "spaces" such as fora, roads, buildings, temples, even people, and explores or "transgresses" these "spaces". One recently influential volume to explore this relationship is Catharine Edward's Writing Rome (Cambridge, 1995), in which, to the satisfaction of the Livy scholar, Edwards devotes an appreciable amount of attention to Livy. But Jaeger, already well established in her own right as one of the exciting new generation of Livian scholars, now goes one better and gives us a Livy-only treatment of the relationship. Starting on page 7 she defines the book's argument: "this book examines Livy's use of the Roman world, particularly the city of Rome, as one of his primary organising devices", and continues on page 8: "accordingly, this book is concerned with the representation of space, monuments and memory in the Ab Urbe Condita as a spatial entity, a monument, and a lengthy act of remembering". As far as the Roman world as Livy's main organisational device for the history is concerned, Jaeger is of course correct. Previous to this argument she points out that "books, pentads, and decades of his narrative correspond to [Roman] historical epochs" (6). She is again correct, but this latter statement is more or less obvious: Livy is writing a Roman history with Romans as the central characters and with Romans as the intended readers. Therefore, the tendency of the Roman reader to consider himself to be at the centre of the world (as Jaeger notes on page 9) and of a Roman world-history is understandable. Jaeger is also correct in seeing the

Extractions: Preface. However it will be, it will help nevertheless that I have myself considered the memory of the public deeds accomplished by the first People of all the lands to the best of my ability; and if in such a great crowd of writers my fame becomes obscure, with the nobility and greatness of those who eclipse my name I should console myself. The matter is, moreover, one of immense work, that over a seven hundred year period it be found out, and because having started from tiny beginnings it [the state] has grown to such an extent that now under its own greatness it labours. On the other hand, also, for most readers I do not doubt but that the first origins and the matters nearest to those origins will furnish less enjoyment as they hurry on to those new matters by which a long pre-eminent People's strength is itself destroying itself. I myself, on the contrary, will seek this reward also for my labor: that from the contemplation of those evils which our age saw through so many years, for as long surely as I seek again those ancient times in my mind, I will avert myself, free from all care which in the mind of a writer, even if it does not turn him from the truth, nevertheless can cause him trouble.

Machiavelli, Niccolo: Discourses On Livy
Machiavelli, Niccolo Discourses on livy, university press books, shopping cart, new release notification.
http://www.press.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/hfs.cgi/00/13040.ctl

Extractions: Discourses on Livy is the founding document of modern republicanism, and Harvey C. Mansfield and Nathan Tarcov have provided the definitive English translation of this classic work. Faithful to the original Italian text, properly attentive to Machiavelli's idiom and subtlety of thought, it is eminently readable. With a substantial introduction, extensive explanatory notes, a glossary of key words, and an annotated index, the Discourses reveals Machiavelli's radical vision of a new science of politics, a vision of "new modes and orders" that continue to shape the modern ethos.

http://www.ucpress.edu/books/pages/7089.php

Extractions: Description History , Andrew Feldherr demonstrates the ways in which Livy uses specific visual imagery to make the reader not only an observer of certain key events in Roman history but also a participant in those events. This innovative study incorporates recent literary and cultural theory with detailed historical analysis to put an ancient text into dialogue with contemporary discussions of visual culture. In Spectacle and Society in Livy's History , Feldherr shows how Livy uses the literary representation of spectacles from the Roman past to construct a new sense of civic identity among his readers. He offers a new way of understanding how Livy's technique addressed the political and cultural needs of Roman citizens in Livy's day. In addition to renewing our understanding of Livy through modern scholarship, Feldherr provides a new assessment of the historian's aims and methods by asking what it means for the historian to make readers spectators of history.

Fifteenth Century Manuscript Of Livy

http://special.lib.gla.ac.uk/exhibns/month/oct2005.html

Extractions: MS Hunter 370 (V.1.7) Our October 'Book of the Month' is a fifteenth-century illuminated manuscript. The text is a classical work by the Roman writer Livy who began writing his History of Rome over two thousand years ago. This manuscript copy is unusual because, at this time, humanist copies of Livy were not normally illustrated. Moreover, the illustrations in this volume are exceptionally beautiful. Unfortunately, the majority of Livy's writing has not survived. What remains, including summaries written by later authors, indicates that the History was an extensive work. It spanned nearly 800 years from the foundation of the city of Rome (753BC) to the death of Cicero (43BC) with a summary covering events down to 9BC. The volume featured here comprises what is known as the 'Third Decade' of the History and deals with the period of the Second Punic War (218-201BC). As Livy describes it, "...the story of the most memorable war in history: that, namely, which was fought by Carthage under the leadership of Hannibal against Rome." It includes the journey of Hannibal's army across the Alps with war elephants, the siege and fall of cities and battles in Italy, Spain and Africa. The final battle of this period, the Battle of Zama, resulted in Hannibal's defeat by the Roman general, Publius Cornelius Scipio (Scipio Africanus).

Extractions: UNIT XV LIVY Titus Livius (59 B.C. - A.D.17) was born in Patavium, modern day Padua, and spent much of his adult life there as well as in Rome, where, along with Virgil and Horace, he was a member of Augustus Caesar's literary circle. Little else is known of his personal life other than that his earliest literary attempts were philosophical dialogues. His most famous work is his very lengthy history of Rome, ab urbe condita libri. This work was truly a labor of love; it took him forty years to write and, when finished, it consisted of one hundred and forty two books, of which only thirty five have survived. Several minor Roman historians wrote summaries, called epitomes, of Livy's entire work and it is through these summaries that some idea of the content of the missing books is known. Livy's history begins with the mythological founding of Rome and concludes with the death of Drusus in 9 B.C. The work is not always free of factual error, but the story which Livy tells is one of captivating drama and interesting characters, some real and some fictitious, several of whom became common place names in the literature of early America. Among these are Romulus, Tarquin, Brutus, Cincinnatus, Lucretia and Hannibal. Livy's motivation in writing his history was more ambitious than just telling an interesting story of those events which were well known to his fellow Romans. His intent was to capture in words the meaning of the virtues of patriotism, bravery and personal sacrifice in early Rome's history and to describe the high moral tenor which existed when that city state was a republic. In the preface of his work, Livy clearly placed these intentions before the eyes of his reader:

http://traumwerk.stanford.edu/archaeolog/2007/06/hannibals_engineers_and_livy_o.

Extractions: Main Posted by Patrick Hunt Many have commented on Livy's famous passage ( Hist. XXI.36-7) where he describes Hannibal's engineers surmounting a large rock blockage on the Italian descent of the Alps, including the late great French archaeologist Serge Lancel (Lancel, 1998:78-9) and our History Channel team 2006 production (June-November, 2006). According to Livy, and repeated in Ammianus Marcellinus (de Sanctis, 1917:77 ff), the ancient engineers poured boiling vinegar on the rocks to facilitate their massive cracking along with burning the rocks by a fire underneath them, after which they were able to remove sufficient rock to pass by. One immediate problem with this story - as Lancel affirmed - is that it is not repeated in Polybius, the more credible source, who also describes Hannibal's engineers removing blocked rock after an avalanche (Polybius, Hist . III.54.5-55.1) but without this colorful detail of vinegar and burning rock. Polybius is so trustworthy on topographic detail it is surprising his text has such a lacuna if the story is true.
