    Extractions: Livy enthusiasts have been fortunate that there has been a substantial rise of interest in their author in the last few years and many major works of scholarship on the historian have been produced. Mary Jaeger's book builds particularly upon the recent interest in the relationship between Latin literature and the city of Rome - how a literary text represents "spaces" such as fora, roads, buildings, temples, even people, and explores or "transgresses" these "spaces". One recently influential volume to explore this relationship is Catharine Edward's Writing Rome (Cambridge, 1995), in which, to the satisfaction of the Livy scholar, Edwards devotes an appreciable amount of attention to Livy. But Jaeger, already well established in her own right as one of the exciting new generation of Livian scholars, now goes one better and gives us a Livy-only treatment of the relationship. Starting on page 7 she defines the book's argument: "this book examines Livy's use of the Roman world, particularly the city of Rome, as one of his primary organising devices", and continues on page 8: "accordingly, this book is concerned with the representation of space, monuments and memory in the Ab Urbe Condita as a spatial entity, a monument, and a lengthy act of remembering". As far as the Roman world as Livy's main organisational device for the history is concerned, Jaeger is of course correct. Previous to this argument she points out that "books, pentads, and decades of his narrative correspond to [Roman] historical epochs" (6). She is again correct, but this latter statement is more or less obvious: Livy is writing a Roman history with Romans as the central characters and with Romans as the intended readers. Therefore, the tendency of the Roman reader to consider himself to be at the centre of the world (as Jaeger notes on page 9) and of a Roman world-history is understandable. Jaeger is also correct in seeing the

    Extractions: Preface. However it will be, it will help nevertheless that I have myself considered the memory of the public deeds accomplished by the first People of all the lands to the best of my ability; and if in such a great crowd of writers my fame becomes obscure, with the nobility and greatness of those who eclipse my name I should console myself. The matter is, moreover, one of immense work, that over a seven hundred year period it be found out, and because having started from tiny beginnings it [the state] has grown to such an extent that now under its own greatness it labours. On the other hand, also, for most readers I do not doubt but that the first origins and the matters nearest to those origins will furnish less enjoyment as they hurry on to those new matters by which a long pre-eminent People's strength is itself destroying itself. I myself, on the contrary, will seek this reward also for my labor: that from the contemplation of those evils which our age saw through so many years, for as long surely as I seek again those ancient times in my mind, I will avert myself, free from all care which in the mind of a writer, even if it does not turn him from the truth, nevertheless can cause him trouble.

    Extractions: UNIT XV LIVY Titus Livius (59 B.C. - A.D.17) was born in Patavium, modern day Padua, and spent much of his adult life there as well as in Rome, where, along with Virgil and Horace, he was a member of Augustus Caesar's literary circle. Little else is known of his personal life other than that his earliest literary attempts were philosophical dialogues. His most famous work is his very lengthy history of Rome, ab urbe condita libri. This work was truly a labor of love; it took him forty years to write and, when finished, it consisted of one hundred and forty two books, of which only thirty five have survived. Several minor Roman historians wrote summaries, called epitomes, of Livy's entire work and it is through these summaries that some idea of the content of the missing books is known. Livy's history begins with the mythological founding of Rome and concludes with the death of Drusus in 9 B.C. The work is not always free of factual error, but the story which Livy tells is one of captivating drama and interesting characters, some real and some fictitious, several of whom became common place names in the literature of early America. Among these are Romulus, Tarquin, Brutus, Cincinnatus, Lucretia and Hannibal. Livy's motivation in writing his history was more ambitious than just telling an interesting story of those events which were well known to his fellow Romans. His intent was to capture in words the meaning of the virtues of patriotism, bravery and personal sacrifice in early Rome's history and to describe the high moral tenor which existed when that city state was a republic. In the preface of his work, Livy clearly placed these intentions before the eyes of his reader:

    Extractions: (From Australia) Island 29 Nov 1998 In 1936 at eighteen he won the Senior Reading Prize at Royal College where he was a prefect. Now at eighty this great-grandfather is still riding the radio waves in a nine hour shift at FM's 'Capital Radio' and ''Savana''. Livy Wijemanne's story is enthralling for it reflects the golden years of Ceylon broadcasting. Livy is more than a pioneer: he set the trend which others followed. Not long ago the Director General of the Ceylon Broadcasting Corporation Eric Fernando presented Livy with a special award at the ''Obe Katahande Thama Mathakai ' ceremony held at the Tower Hall. As a tribute to the Radio Ceylon announcers of 1950 to 1998 it was a significant event. Livy as an announcer has had no equal: he trudged the coir -matted studios of Colombo Radio in Cotta Road, where Isabel de Kretser and Ned Rankine ruled the roost in the early thirties. The Scottish born Isabel who was the world's first woman announcer was watched by Livy as she broadcast the abdication of Edward VIII. Livy admits that she was a remarkable announcer with a voice that has hardly been equalled. In my years in the ministry of the Catholic church I witnessed the sweeping changes in Radio Ceylon and the part that Livy Wijemanne played in its transition. His saga started on October 31 st 1948. The Post Master General (who was also Director of Broadcasting) summoned the young announcer and invited him to become the Assistant Controller of Programmes. A year later in 1949 the BBC's John Lampson was on a contract to organise Radio Ceylon which moved from Cotta Road to Torrington Square.

    Extractions: Discourses on Livy is the founding document of modern republicanism, and Harvey C. Mansfield and Nathan Tarcov have provided the definitive English translation of this classic work. Faithful to the original Italian text, properly attentive to Machiavelli's idiom and subtlety of thought, it is eminently readable. With a substantial introduction, extensive explanatory notes, a glossary of key words, and an annotated index, the Discourses reveals Machiavelli's radical vision of a new science of politics, a vision of "new modes and orders" that continue to shape the modern ethos.

Main Posted by Patrick Hunt Many have commented on Livy's famous passage ( Hist. XXI.36-7) where he describes Hannibal's engineers surmounting a large rock blockage on the Italian descent of the Alps, including the late great French archaeologist Serge Lancel (Lancel, 1998:78-9) and our History Channel team 2006 production (June-November, 2006). According to Livy, and repeated in Ammianus Marcellinus (de Sanctis, 1917:77 ff), the ancient engineers poured boiling vinegar on the rocks to facilitate their massive cracking along with burning the rocks by a fire underneath them, after which they were able to remove sufficient rock to pass by. One immediate problem with this story - as Lancel affirmed - is that it is not repeated in Polybius, the more credible source, who also describes Hannibal's engineers removing blocked rock after an avalanche (Polybius, Hist . III.54.5-55.1) but without this colorful detail of vinegar and burning rock. Polybius is so trustworthy on topographic detail it is surprising his text has such a lacuna if the story is true.
