italic title NOTOC The Discourses on Livy lang it Discorsi sopra la prima deca di Tito Livio , literally Discourses on the First Decade of Titus Livy is a work of political history and philosophy written in the early 16th century ca. 1517 by the Italian writer and political theorist Niccol Machiavelli , best known as the author of The Prince . Where the latter is nominally devoted to advising the ruler of a principality , in other words a type of monarchy , the Discourses purport to explain the structure and benefits of a republic , a form of government based on some level of popular consent and control. Machiavelli dedicated this work to Zanobi Buondelmonti and Cosimo Rucellai, two of the greatest exponents of the Orti Oricellari in Florence, where aristocratic young people met in order to discuss politics, art and literature. Outline The Prince is written in the form of a short digest, based primarily on empirical observations about great men. Machiavelli wrote the Discourses in the form of a longer commentary on Livy s work on the history of Ancient Rome , Ab Urbe condita book Ab Urbe condita . However, both books include empirical observations&mdash particularly from the political landscape of Italian Renaissance Renaissance Italy &mdash and historical generalizations. Machiavelli himself does not make a sharp distinction between the two methods of inquiry, as he thinks that all ages are fundamentally similar. Machiavelli seeks to use both methods to discover the laws of motion ... on the First Ten Books of Livy, Machiavelli makes liberal references and allusions to the other ... and that of the Discourses on Livy and the History of Florence shows that this profound political ... and Orders, A study of the Discourses on Livy location publisher University of Chicago year 2001 ...

Mergeto Auxiliaries Roman military Alae date February 2010 RomanMilitary See also Ala Roman cavalry unit An Ala Latin language Latin for wing , plural form alae was the term used during the mid Roman Republic 338 88 BC to denote a military formation composed of conscripts from the socii , Rome s Italian military allies. A normal consul ar army during this period consisted of 2 Roman legion legion s, composed of Roman citizens only, and 2 allied alae .

Mid Republic When, at a later date, the Roman armies were composed partly of Roman citizens and partly of Socii allies from the rest of the Italian mainland , either Latini or Italici, it became the practice to marshal the Roman troops in the centre of the battle line and the Socii upon the wings. Armies of the middle republic would consist of two Roman legion legions of Roman citizens and two legions of ala , with the ala supplying thirty turmae of cavalry per legion, whereas the Roman provided only ten turmae.
