Proper nounLivy
From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Titus Livius (59 BC – AD 17), known as Livy in English, was a Roman historian who wrote a monumental history of Rome and the Roman people, Ab Urbe Condita Libri, "Chapters from the Foundation of the City," covering the period from the earliest legends of Rome well before the traditional foundation in 753 BC through the reign of Augustus in Livy's own time. He was on familiar terms with the Julio-Claudian family, advising Augustus' grandnephew, the future emperor Claudius, as a young man not long before 14 AD in a letter to take up the writing of history. Livy and Augustus' wife, Livia, were from the same clan in different locations, although not related by blood. From Wikipedia under the

This is the best I can offer; I haven't looked through it myself, but it seems that if there's anything relevant anywhere it is likely to found therein. It does however rely on you having jstor access; without it I would be very surprised if there's anything relevant online anywhere. Having not read a great degree of Plutarch myself, I can't really offer any further insight, though I do have some knowledge of the relevant Ab Urbe Condita (especially Book 21, and within that at the introduction of Hanibal). Particularly important might be 21.4, dealing with his characterisation: This comes with English translations and commentaries. I'm not really au fait enough with even the basic themes of Plutarch to give any further examples, I'm… [cont.] Answered by Caudex - Sun May 23 10:19:14 2010 How important is the study of world history? Q. "The study of history is the best medicine for a sick mind; for in history you have a record of the infinite variety of human experience plainly set out for all to see; and in that record you can find yourself and your country both examples and warnings; fine things to take as models, base things rotten through and through, to avoid." -Livy Asked by last_errant_knight - Sun Jun 10 02:35:46 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. Seems you've answered your own question. It happens I think it is important also. It has enabled me to predict the outcome of many bad ideas, but knowing what happened in the past. Sort of the same theory about computers: garbage in , garbage out. Answered by U B Happy - Sun Jun 10 02:47:32 2007 Nickname for Olivia, Livy or Livvy?
Q. Which spelling do you like better? Asked by Preggo Eggo - Mon Jan 5 23:06:47 2009 - - 9 Answers - 0 Comments A. Livy is simpler and is the more obvious spelling that most people would use when spelling the name. It also makes more sense with the name as it is not spelled olivvia.
