LATN 021. Republican Literature

In this course, we will be reading Book 1 of the Ab Urbe Condita by Livy as an example of Roman historiography in the Late Republic and Early Empire. The course will view the text both as a problematic document for Rome’s earliest history but also as evidence for Livy’s own age in the early Augustan regime.
