Lives : Written at the beginning of the second century, Plutarch's collection of accounts of the lives of noble Grecians is a brilliant social history of the ancient world by one of the greatest biographers and moralists of all time. Still inspiration after 19 centuries, Plutarch's Lives offers a unique insight into the characters as well as the achievements of men who influenced their age and the empires that their culture dominated.
