Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Livy; Books XXI, XXII, and XXIII: With Introduction and Notes The text of Livy given in this book is that of Madvig´s edition of 1880. In writing the notes I have obtained valuable help from Weissenborn´s Livy, and also Mr. Capes´ Livy (Books XXI. and XXII.), works intended for scholars more advanced than those to whom my own notes are likely to be of service. I am indebted to Mr. Evelyn Abbott of Balliol College for many kind suggestions made as the work was passing through the Press. Other obligations have been acknowledged in the notes themselves. My object throughout my explanations has been to make it fairly easy for the reader to translate Livy, and to get a clear knowledge of the history of the period, and I have also done my best to interest him both in the Romans and their language. I have avoided philological notes, and to my grammatical explanations I have preferred to give a popular rather than a technical character, often explaining difficult constructions by what I have called a literal rendering, though I have been obliged to use the word ´literally´ in a somewhat wide sense. An absolutely literal translation of a Latin passage would often be at least as difficult to understand as the passage which it professed to explain.
