In this lecture, Wes Callihan explores the thought and contribution of the great Roman historian Livy. Below are some images of Livy and his one extant book, The History of Rome or Ab Urbe Condita (which means “from the founding of the city”). Livy lived from about 59 BC to AD 17 and his book was likely written in his midlife.
