Description
Livy's magnum opus presents a vivid narrative of Rome's rise from its traditional foundation to 9 BC. This comprehensive history spans over 500 years, from the city's establishment in 753 or 751 BC to the imperial autocracy of Augustus.
The work is composed of 142 books, with complete sections available for perusal and summaries providing a concise overview of the remaining texts. The fourth decad includes two recognizable pentads, detailing the Second Macedonian War and Rome's subsequent expansion into the Hellenistic states.
This edition offers a fresh translation, ample annotation, and a text based on Briscoe's edition, ensuring that readers can engage with modern scholarship while exploring one of the most significant works of ancient Roman history.
