Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plutarch's Lives, written at the beginning of the second century A.D., is a brilliant social history of the ancient world by one of the greatest biographers and moralists of all time. In what is by far his most famous and influential work, Plutarch reveals the character and personality of his subjects and how they led ultimately to tragedy or victory. Richly anecdotal and full of detail, Volume I contains profiles and comparisons of Romulus and Theseus, Numa and Lycurgus, Fabius and Pericles, and many more powerful figures of ancient Greece and Rome. The present translation, originally published in 1683 in conjunction with a life of Plutarch by John Dryden, was revised in 1864 by the poet and scholar Arthur Hugh Clough, whose notes and preface are also included in this edition.

Download or read book Plutarch's Lives - Vol. III written by Plutarch and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2019-05-01 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plutarch's “Lives of the Noble Greeks and Romans”, often simply referred to as “Plutarch's Lives”, is a series of biographies of notable ancient Greek and Roman figures most likely written at the beginning of the second century AD. Instead of simply writing histories, Plutarch explores the effect that character, good or bad, had on the lives and careers of these famous men, to which end the people treated are ordered in pairs in an attempt to highlight their common moral virtues or shortcomings. This book contains volume III of the English translation by Aubrey Stewart and George Long, presented here for the enjoyment of modern readers with an interest in the ancient world. Contents include: “Life of Nikias”, “Life of Crassus”, “Comparison of Nikias and Crassus”, “Life of Sertorius”, “Life of Eumenes”, “Comparison of Sertorius and Eumenes”, “Life of Agesilaus”, etc. Plutarch (c. AD 46 – AD 120) was a Greek biographer and essayist most famous for this series of biographies and his work “Moralia”. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.

Book excerpt: Plutarch of Chaeronea is one of the great storytellers of antiquity, a writer whose ability to create unforgettable scenes matches the grandeur of his subject matter. The heroes of his Lives were the great men of antiquity, often greatly flawed, but with tragic depth and epic stature. Thomas North's translation, one of the most splendid works of sixteenth-century English prose, presents a vigorous and passionate version of the Lives whose qualities so attracted Shakespeare that he used North as his major source for Julius Caesar, Coriolanus and Antony & Cleopatra. This collection includes all the Lives which Shakespeare used and a selection of others which aim to show the variety and range of Plutarch's writing.

Download or read book Plutarch's Lives, Volume 2 (of 4) written by Plutarch and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-08-12 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plutarch's 'Lives', Volume 2 (of 4) is a collection of biographies of famous Greek and Roman figures, such as Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar. Written in the 1st century AD, Plutarch's work provides a unique insight into the lives and character of these historical figures, blending historical facts with moral lessons. The book is known for its vivid storytelling and in-depth analysis of the subjects' virtues and vices, making it a valuable resource for students of both history and philosophy. Plutarch's literary style is engaging and informative, making the biographies both entertaining and educational. Plutarch was a Greek historian and biographer known for his ethical essays and biographical works. His background in philosophy and his interest in the lives of important figures in history led him to write 'Lives', a series of parallel biographies of prominent Greeks and Romans. Plutarch's goal was not only to recount historical events but also to explore the moral character and virtues of the individuals he wrote about. I highly recommend 'Plutarch's Lives, Volume 2' to anyone interested in ancient history, philosophy, or biography. Plutarch's insightful analysis and vivid storytelling make this book a timeless classic that continues to be relevant today.
