This edition presents a focused selection from Tite-Live's *Histoire romaine*, specifically Book 30, sections 12–17. The passage belongs to Livy's vast account of Rome's rise and belongs to the period of the Second Punic War, when Roman and Carthaginian power were drawn toward a decisive confrontation. By isolating a compact portion of the narrative, the volume offers readers a manageable way to study Livy's historical method, his treatment of military crisis, diplomacy, and political judgment, and the literary qualities that made the *Ab Urbe Condita* central to the Western historical tradition. Published by Du Temps in the *Les Juxtalinéaires* series, the book is suited to readers approaching classical Latin history through French scholarship and close reading. It will be of interest to students of ancient Rome, classical literature, and the historiography of the Roman Republic.
