Busolt, Georg (1850–1920)
Georg Busolt (1850–1920) wrote a history of Greece on a scale that will never be surpassed. His history had been planned to come down through 338 bce but concluded with the end of the Peloponnesian War in 404 bce . The first volume of his great final work, Griechische Staatskunde , surveyed the laws and customs of the Greek states; the second volume examined Sparta, Athens, and Crete in detail.

Livy
Livy has been frequently underestimated as a writer. This study aims to explain Livy's aims and his historical and literary methods. It first sets the historian within his Augustan background and within the tradition of ancient historiography; then presents a detailed account of his religious and moral preocuupations, his use of sources and his Latinity; and finally examines the literary theories which underlie both narrative and speeches
