Biographie:
Titus Livius was born in Patavium (Padua), Italy in 64 B.C. or 59 B.C. Due to civil wars during his youth, he received little higher education. As a young man, he spent a long time in Rome, but held no political office. He was, however, wealthy enough to dedicate himself to philosophy and rhetoric, and he had close contacts with Augustus, the Roman emperor. Livy's outstanding historical work, Ab urbe condita on the history of Rome, starting from its foundation in 753, ends with the death of Drusus in 9 B.C. Livy died in Patavium, most likely after the death of Augustus in A.D. 14.
