[QUOTE="Gam3rBlake, post: 7928120, member: 115909"]Did you know Livy (Titus Livius) himself actually encouraged Claudius to study history? The legendary Roman historian Tacitus even used Claudius’ work as a source for his own writings. Unfortunately all of Claudius’s works have been lost. If you don’t know who Livy is he wrote “Ab Urbe Condita” (From the founding of the City) which was a monumental history of Rome from Aeneas fleeing Troy after the Trojan War to the reign of Augustus. Livy was also a personal friend of Augustus and was welcome at the palace whenever he felt like coming.[/QUOTE]
