Livy’s History of Rome

In this reading response, you’re going to read part of Livy’s History of Rome, originally a 142
volume series on the history of Rome written during the time of Rome’s first emperor. Spend
the first half of your response describing how Livy characterizes Romulus and how that
characterization might suggest what it means to be a good and honorable person in ancient
Roman society. Then spend the second half of your response giving your thoughts on what
Livy thinks about kingship based on the stories of Romulus and his ancestors. Please also
include 3 in-text citations from the source I will provide.
