21. Battle Of Saguntum: Polybius And Livy
Battle of Saguntum Comparison of Polybius and livy. livy, a Roman born and breed, takes a more national outlook on the events at Saguntum.
http://www.barca.fsnet.co.uk/saguntum-polybius-livy.htm
Battle of Saguntum: Comparison of Polybius and Livy
The battle of Saguntum as told by Polybius and Livy gives two separate accounts of the same battle and the events leading up to it. The most significant force shaping these two authors is most likely the nationalities of the two men. The differences in the styles and facts between these two stories are extensive. While neither side fully identifies with Carthage, one author definitely gives a more well rounded and evenly balanced account. The two histories differ not only in facts about the battle, but also in the events leading up to the battle as well as how Hannibal is depicted.
The nationality of a writer in reference to the country he/she is examining, is the key to understanding the point of view from which a story is told. In this comparison, Polybius is a foreign writer living in Rome while writing about it. Polybius being born a Greek allows him to step outside the nationalism of Rome and view the battle of Saguntum in a more unbiased form. Livy, a Roman born and breed, takes a more national outlook on the events at Saguntum. His views express a more opinionated and biased tone. Livy also wrote almost 200 years after the battle, during the height of the Roman Empire. This period was subject to extreme nationalism in literature. This movement must also account for the numerous pro-Roman themes in Livy account and other works of the time such as Virgil's Aeneid. With these attributes now stated, a more in-depth analysis of these works can commence. To begin, a comparison of the most principle character must take place. Hannibal is the most decorated general ever to grace a Carthage battlefield. The way he is depict by the two authors is key in understanding their stances on the events of Saguntum.

Livy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. A native of Padua on the Po River in northern Italy Titus Livius (around 59 BC - AD ), in English known as Livy , wrote a monumental history of Rome from its founding in 753 BC . The book's title, Ab Urbe Condita ("From the Founding of the City"), makes Livy's ambition clear, but not his method. He writes in a mixture of annual chronology and narrative - often having to interrupt a story to announce the elections of new Consuls at Rome. Livy's task was made the more difficult because of a lack of historical data prior to the sacking of Rome in 390 BC by the Gauls Livy wrote the majority of his works under Augustus , but is often identified with an attachment to the Roman Republic and a desire for its restoration. Since we lack the later books discussing the end of the Republic and the rise of Augustus , this is a moot point. Certainly Livy questioned some of the values of the new regime but it is likely that his position was more complex than a simple 'republic/empire' preference.

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.

Livy (59 BC-17)
A native of Padua on the Po River in northern Italy, Titus Livius (in English-speaking countries, "Livy"), wrote a monumental history of Rome from its founding in 753 B.C.

He writes in a mixture of annual chronology and narrative - often having to interrupt a story to announce the elections of new Consuls at Rome.

Life
The life of Titus Livius (or Livy, to use his more common English name), is not well known. Almost everything we know about the author of the voluminous History of Rome from its foundation is derived from a handful of anecdotes recorded by later authors, who may have found them in a (now lost) book by the Roman biographer Suetonius called Historians and philosophers . Nevertheless, we know something about Livy's life, and that is more than we can say about several other important ancient authors (e.g., Homer Life
Scope of the
History ...
Periochae
Augustus
The Christian author Jerome, an excellent chronographer, states that Livy was born in 59 BCE and died in 17 CE. There is no evidence to contradict this piece of information. It makes Livy a near contemporary of the Roman politician Octavian, who was born in 63, became sole ruler of the Roman empire in 31, accepted the surname Augustus in 27, and died in 14 CE. That Livy was born in Patavium (modern Padua) is clear from Quintilian, the author of a nice book on the education of orators, who recorded that Livy never lost his Patavian accent.

Livy:
The Roman Way of Declaring War, c. 650 BCE
[Davis Introduction]: Among the very old formulas and usages that survived at Rome down to relatively late times, this method of declaring war holds a notable place. It was highly needful to observe all the necessary formalities in beginning hostilities, otherwise the angry gods would turn their favor to the enemy. Ancus Marcius, the fourth king of Rome, was at once a man of peace and an efficient soldier; and on the outbreak of a war with the Latins he is said to have instituted the customs which later ages of Romans observed in war. History of Rome , I.32: Inasmuch as Numa had instituted the religious rites for days of peace, Ancus Marcius desired that the ceremonies relating to war might be transmitted by himself to future ages. Accordingly he borrowed from an ancient folk, the Aequicolae, the form which the [Roman] heralds still observe, when they make public demand for restitution. The [Roman] envoy when he comes to the frontier of the offending nation, covers his head with a woolen fillet, and says: i.e.

    "An exciting and sophisticated approach to a major author in the Latin canon who has been much ignored. Feldherr's writing is clear and intelligent and admirably reflects his engagement in the material. The close analysis is extraordinarily perceptive and innovativea real pleasure to read."Ann Vasaly, author of Representations "[Feldherr] persuasively establishes civic spectacle as a broad category under which to examine the rhetorical strategies of both the makers and the writers of history."Ralph Hexter, University of California, Berkeley DESCRIPTION (back to top) Public spectaclefrom the morning rituals of the Roman noble to triumphs and the shows of the Arenaformed a crucial component of the language of power in ancient Rome. The historian Livy (c. 60 B.C.E.-17 C.E.), who provides our fullest description of Rome's early history, presents his account of the growth of the Roman state itself as something to be seena visual monument and public spectacle. Through analysis of several episodes in Livy's History , Andrew Feldherr demonstrates the ways in which Livy uses specific visual imagery to make the reader not only an observer of certain key events in Roman history but also a participant in those events. This innovative study incorporates recent literary and cultural theory with detailed historical analysis to put an ancient text into dialogue with contemporary discussions of visual culture.

    Livy - Ab Urbe Condita
    The Structure of Livy - Ab Urbe Condita Titus Livius (Livy) was born c. 59 B.C. and died in A.D. 17 at Patavium, in northern Italy. In about 29 B.C., while living in Rome, Livy started his magnum opus, Ab Urbe Condita , a history of Rome from its foundation, written in 142 books. Little else is known about Livy, although it is reported that while he does not appear to have held public office, Augustus considered him a Republican and Suetonius thought he had encouraged the Emperor Claudius in his historical studies. Even if we don't know much about Livy's life, we have a generous sample of his writing (35 books: i-x, xxi-xlv) and an even more generous supply of scholarship about it.
