Four Comedies | Vergil's Aeneid | A Martial Reader | Cicero's First Catilinarian Oration | Reading Livy's Rome
Selections in this volume convey the liveliness and variety of Livy's style, with its permutations and combinations of narrative and speech, and with its portrayal of Romans and foreigners, men and women, aristocrats and ex-slaves. Selections include such favorites as the story of Horatius at the Bridge, which inspired the historian Macaulay's Lays of Ancient Rome and was studied by generations of Latin students, as well as others not often included in readers-such as Livy's account of the so-called ''Bacchic conspiracy.''
