PLUTARCH’S LIVES

Plutarch’s “”Lives,”” also known as “”Parallel Lives,”” is a series of biographies of notable figures from ancient Greece and Rome. Written by the Greek historian and biographer Plutarch, these works have been a cornerstone of classical literature and a crucial source of historical information. The biographies are paired to compare the lives and virtues of Greek and Roman statesmen, generals, and politicians, providing deep insights into their characters and times. This translation by Aubrey Stewart and George Long brings Plutarch’s rich, narrative style to an English-speaking audience with clarity and fidelity to the original text. Stewart and Long’s work preserves the moral and ethical reflections that Plutarch intersperses throughout his accounts, making this version both a valuable historical document and a source of timeless wisdom. —- ISBN: 9798328494472
