Livius noster

This book stems from a conference on Livy held at the University of Padua, on the occasion of the bimillenary of the historian’s death (6-10 November 2017). The aim of the volume is to shed new light on lesser-known aspects of Livy’s historiography, by approaching his work from a broad and interdisciplinary perspective. The papers, written by established scholars as well as by younger researchers, span from classical philology to ancient history and archaeology, also incorporating an in-depth investigation of Livy’s reception through the centuries (from the Middle Ages to the Modern Era) and different fields of the humanities (philosophy, political thought, figurative arts).
