Abstract Details

2023, MA, Kent State University, College of Arts and Sciences / Department of Modern and Classical Language Studies.
This thesis examines Livy's pro-republican statements in Books 1-5 and how he used them as exempla and documenta. In particular, it discusses how Livy's use of exempla and documenta demonstrates how libertas, freedom, cannot exist under a regnum, monarchy, and serves as a commentary about the events that occurred during its composition.
