Levene, D. S.
Livy on the Hannibalic War

Levene's study of Livy's Third Decade, explores the things that make it distinctive not only within Livy's writing, but also within all ancient historiography. The author examines such topics as Livy's construction of, his narrative, his source-material and use of literary allusion, his battle scenes, his sophisticated but ambivalent attitudes towards non-Romans, and above all his challenging and revolutionary treatment of such things as chronology, causation, and indeed human character.
