Livy From LoveToKnow 1911 LIVY [TITUS Livius] (59 B.C. - A.D. 17), Roman historian, was born at Patavium (Padua). The ancient connexion between his native city and Rome helped to turn his attention to the study which became the work of his life. For Padua claimed, like Rome, a Trojan origin, and Livy is careful to place its founder Antenor side by side with Aeneas . A more real bond of union was found in the dangers to which both had been exposed from the assaults of the Celts (Livy x. 2), and Padua must have been drawn to Rome as the conqueror of her hereditary foes. Moreover, at the time of Livy's birth, Padua had long been in possession of the full Roman franchise , and the historian's family name may have been taken by one of his ancestors out of compliment to the great Livian gens at Rome, whose connexion with Cisalpine Gaul is well-established (Suet. Tib. 3), and by one of whom his family may have been enfranchized. Livy's easy independent life at Rome, and his aristocratic leanings in politics seem to show that he was the son of well-born and opulent parents; he was certainly well educated, being widely read in Greek literature , and a student both of rhetoric and philosophy . We have also evidence in his writings that he had prepared himself for his great work by researches into the history of his native town. His youth and early manhood, spent perhaps chiefly at Padua, were cast in stormy times, and the impression which they left upon his mind was ineffaceable. In the Civil War his personal sympathies were with

The Strategist Making sense of a dangerous world Wednesday, 21 November 2007 A Greater Nero? Writing about the Second Punic War (218-201 BC), Robin Lane Fox in The Classical World described Roman commanders as "men with military life in their bones". "They all underwent ten years of military service before they were eligible for office. Every magistrate was a horseman, capable of serving his Fatherland on horseback." One who exemplified this tradition was Gaius Claudius Nero, one of two Roman consuls in 207 BC. That year Rome faced the greatest challenge to its survival since 218 BC when Hannibal crossed the Alps: Hasdrubal, brother of Hannibal, also invaded Italy from the north. With Hannibal's army in the south, the danger was extreme - if the brothers could unite, Carthage might crush Rome. To counter the threat Roman forces were split into two. Nero was sent south to contain Hannibal, while Marcus Livius, the other consul, went north to confront Hasdrubal. Nero's scouts intercepted a letter from Hasdrubal to Hannibal in which Hasdrubal suggested that they join forces in Umbria. According to the Roman historian Livy in Hannibal's War (27.43), Nero realized that he had to act quickly:

How Mucius Scaevola Impressed the Etruscans Home Syllabus Policies The blockade, however, continued, and with it a growing scarcity of corn at famine prices. Porsena still cherished hopes of capturing the City by keeping up the investment. There was a young noble, C. Mucius, who regarded it as a disgrace that whilst Rome in the days of servitude under her kings had never been blockaded in any war or by any foe, she should now, in the day of her freedom, be besieged by those very Etruscans whose armies she had often routed. Thinking that this disgrace ought to be avenged by some great deed of daring, he determined in the first instance to penetrate into the enemy's camp on his own responsibility. On second thoughts, however, he became apprehensive that if he went without orders from the consuls, or unknown to any one, and happened to be arrested by the Roman outposts, he might be brought back as a deserter, a charge which the condition of the City at the time would make only too probable. Mucius was accordingly dismissed; afterwards he received the soubriquet of Scaevola, from the loss of his right hand. Envoys from Porsena followed him to Rome. The king's narrow escape from the first of many attempts; which was owing solely to the mistake of his assailant, and the prospect of having to meet as many attacks as there were conspirators, so unnerved him that he made proposals of peace to Rome.

Livii ab Urbe Condita Libri Vellum leaf from an illuminated Medieval Manuscript Italy; Middle 15th Century Latin Text; Humanistic Script 22.5 by 16 cm The known part of Livy's great life work, the History of Rome, was completed about the year 9 A.D. The finished work consisted of one hundred and forty-two books, of which only thirty-five are extant. These books are regarded as one of the most precious remains of Latin literature. One of the outstanding characteristics of the scholars and scribes of the Italian Renaissance was their great interest in Latin literature. Through their influence, many copies of the classics were made from the few 9th and 10th century manuscripts available. These earlier manuscripts had been written in a carolingian or pre-gothic script to which the 15th century humanistic calligraphers assigned the name antiqua littera . The letters were not really of antiquity, since minuscule letters were not known before the time of Charlemagne. In the 15th century, this carolingian script became the inspiration not only for manuscripts like this leaf, but also, shortly thereafter, for the fine roman types designed by the printers in Italy.

None has been free for so many generations from the vices of avarice and luxury ; nowhere have thrift and plain living been for so long held in such high esteem." - Titus Livius, "The Early History of Rome", Book I, prologue (trans. A. Selincourt) Livy was born just ten years before Caesar crossed the Rubicon , which means he lived through Rome's crutial transition from a republic into an imperial government. He died in the third year of emperor Tiberius's reign, as the Roman elite were still debating the various elements of their newfound empire. Livy's life, as far as we know, passed quietly in and around the Capitol , as he worked methodically on his History of Rome from its Foundation . At the endeavor's commencement, Livy also dabbled in philosophical dialogues. However, none of these survive and, judging from his intellectual meandering, historical consensus seems to be our loss is likely not great. However, what the man lacked in intellectual precision, he more than made up for in scope, with even

Livy spent the greater part of his life in Rome, where after a scientific education, he became the teacher of the future emperor Claudius. In contrast to other Roman writers of history such as Sallust or Tacitus, he was not politically active, therefore little is known about his life. Of the 142 books of his history of Rome "Ab urbe condita" ("From the Founding of the City"), the only known work of Livy, only books 1-10 (753-293 B.C.E.) and books 21-45 (218-167 B.C.E.) remain. The actual scope of the work, which originally stretched into the 9th century B.C.E. (the death of Drusus), is known only by statements on the contents (periochae), excerpts, and fragments.

Livy for Kids - the Roman historian Livy Livy was a Roman historian who was born in northern Italy about 59 BC , in the Late Republic , when Julius Caesar was just beginning his career. Livy moved to Rome and wrote his books during the reign of the first Roman emperor, Augustus . He wrote an account of the history of Rome from the beginning of the Republic in 509 BC to the reign of Augustus, in 142 books (we would call them chapters today). Unfortunately, most of these books have been lost. We only have 35 of them left. But these books tell us a lot of what we know today about the beginnings of Rome and the Punic Wars Livy was especially interested in showing that people won when they were good, and lost when they were bad. Mainly, Livy shows Romans as good and their enemies as bad. For instance, he shows the Carthaginian general Hannibal as sneaky and savage, while Scipio , the Roman general, is honest and merciful. Livy lived to be about eighty years old, and died during the reign of Augustus Polybius Pliny the Younger Suetonius ... Save to del.icio.us
