About this product

Product Information

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.

The condition of the book is exactly the description of what the seller wrote, once it arrived in my mailbox --- that of being new. There were no highlights, no creases, and no folds. Dust cover is seemless and intact. Packaging is well fitted. Book arrived before the estimated delivery date. Excellent.

  • A classic for every library

    Lightly used edition of Plutarch's Lives, Vol I. A classic work comparing lives of Roman and Greek leaders providing great insight to the people, events, morality, behavior, character, and history of that period.
