Loading... Livy: History of Rome,Volume V, Books 21-22 (Loeb Classical Library No. 233) (edition 1996)by Livy, B. O. Foster (Translator)This review is the same for each of his volumes: Livy is the quintessential historian of ancient Rome. He had his obvious flaws - no one could consider him unbiased in his approach, and he creates dialogue between historical figures that encourage the virtues of the citizens. Still, he is very entertaining. Each of his extant works - most of his books have been lost - presents a far nobler Rome than we have come to expect. Reading Livy is a luxury few are privileged to partake of. Fantastic. |
