About the author

Plutarch (later named, upon becoming a Roman citizen, Lucius Mestrius Plutarchus; AD 46–AD 120) was a Greek historian, biographer, and essayist, known primarily for his Parallel Lives and Moralia. He is classified as a Middle Platonist. Plutarch's surviving works were written in Greek, but intended for both Greek and Roman readers.

Reviews

[Dando Cingoloni · Rating 4 out of 5]

Interessanti introduzioni che preparano a cogliere i punti focali delle biografie del biografo greco. Utile la dissertazione se Plutarco possa o meno considerarsi una valida fonte storica.
