Livy's Exemplary History
Chaplin, Jane D. (Associate Professor of Classics, Associate Professor of Classics, Middlebury College, Vermont, USA)
The Roman historian Livy saw the past as a storehouse of lessons. Jane Chaplin examines how his historical figures manipulate the shifting meaning of the past and reveals Livy's acute sensitivity to contemporary problems. Special emphasis is placed on Romans versus foreigners as students of the past, the competing claims of near and remote events, and history's relevance for current dilemmas.
