Home Ancient Theatre Medieval Theatre 16th Century ... 20th Century LIVIUS ANDRONICUS The following biography is reprinted from LIVIUS ANDRONICUS, the father of Roman poetry, by birth a Greek of Tarentum, first went to Rome at the commencement of the sixth century from the foundation of the city, as instructor to the children of Livius Salinator. He introduced upon the Roman stage, dramas after the Grecian model, and, besides several epic poems, wrote a translation of the Odyssey , in the old Saturnine verse. We have only a few fragments of his writings, which may be found in the Comici Latini , and the The following article is reprinted from Dictionary of Greek and Roman Antiquities. Ed. William Smith. Boston: Little, Brown, and Company, 1870. It was 123 years after the first introduction of scenic performances [in Rome] before the improvement was introduced of having a regular plot. This advance was made by Livius Andronicus, a native of Magna Graecia, in B.C. 240. His pieces, which were both tragedies and comedies, were merely adaptations of Greek dramas. His popularity increasing, a building on the Aventine hill was assigned to him for his use, which served partly as a theatre, partly as a residence for a troop of players, for whom Livius wrote his pieces. The representation of regular plays of this sort was now left to those who were histriones by profession, and who were very commonly either foreigners or slaves; the free-born youth of Rome confined their own scenic performances to the older, irregular farces, which long maintained their ground, and were subsequently called

Livius Andronicus From LoveToKnow 1911 LIVIUS ANDRONICUS c. 284-204 B.C.), the founder of Roman epic poetry and drama. His name, in which the Greek Avbpovucos is combined with the gentile name of one of the great Roman houses, while indicative of his own position as a manumitted slave, is also significant of the influences by which Roman literature was fostered, viz. the culture of men who were either Greeks or "semi-Graeci" by birth and education, and the protection and favour bestowed upon them by the more enlightened members of the Roman aristocracy . He is supposed to have been a native of Tarentum , and to have been brought, while still a boy, after the capture of that town in 272, as a slave to Rome . He lived in the household of a member of the gens Livia, probably M. Livius Salinator. He determined the course which Roman literature followed for more than a century after his time. The imitation of Greek comedy , tragedy and epic poetry , which produced great results in the hands of Naevius, Plautus, Ennius and their successors, received its first impulse from him. To judge , however, from the insignificant remains of his writings, and from the opinions of Cicero and Horace , he can have had no pretension either to original genius or to artistic accomplishment. His real claim to distinction was that he was the first great schoolmaster of the Roman people. We learn from Suetonius that, like Ennius after him, he obtained his living by teaching Greek and
