This monograph reads Livy's work as, among other things, a narrative about space - the space of the city and the space of the world which Rome strives to conquer and control. Using a narratological approach, it analyses how the text constructs the settings of historical events through an interplay of historical information, literary or conventional elements, and spatial semantics. In this way, it sheds light on Livy's interpretation of politics, empire, conquest, and Roman identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Virginia Fabrizi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004733191\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004733190\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/14\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Virginia Fabrizi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47419631993087,"sku":"9789004733190","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c36caf74-81d5-4db9-8b1d-97120c2fd0a1.jpg?v=1761512839","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/space-narrative-and-historical-imagination-virginia-fabrizi-9789004733190","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
