Strand Notes

(Hermes Books Series). This volume sketches the cultural context in which Plutarch worked - Greece under Roman rule - and discusses his family relationships, background, education, and political career. A neglected, vast collection of essays and dialogues - the "Moralila" - has to be known in order to fully assess Plutarch's deepest commitment as a writer. Lamberton also explores the connection between biography and historiography. Appendixes. Index. 218p.
