Livius Andronicus
View through CrossRef
AbstractLivius Andronicus (ca. 280/70–ca. 200bce) is regarded as Rome's first poet, a pioneer who introduced the literary genres of epic, tragedy, and comedy in Latin to Rome. By transposing works of these genres from Greek into Latin he provided the foundations for the development of a literature in Latin. Despite this achievement, his writings were later regarded as unsophisticated; this may be one reason why they only survive in fragments.
