  • Description: According to K. each character performs a specific role in AUC: on the one hand this role was assigned to them by their gender as it was understood in Livy's age. [...]women might have been part of this strategy all along, as they were employed to illuminate his contemporaries about their own present matters (p. 181). Throughout his study K.'s approach echoes with varied purposes: from the exposition of names and events alluding to women to narrative elements that unveil Livy's characteristic process. [...]K.'s method belongs to hermeneutics, in terms of its exhaustive analysis of AUC, and to sociology, since it regularly alludes to aspects of identity, otherness (p. 107) and other attributes of this field.
