“Lives” is a series of biographies of famous Greeks and Romans by the ancient Greek historian Plutarch who lived during the first and second century AD. The work consists of twenty-three paired biographies, one Greek and one Roman, and four unpaired, which explore the influence of character on the lives and destinies of important persons of ancient Greece and Rome. Rather than providing strictly historical accounts, Plutarch was most concerned with capturing his subjects common moral virtues and failings. This volume includes the complete “Lives” in which you will find the biographies of the following persons: Theseus, Romulus, Lycurgus, Numa Pompilius, Solon, Poplicola, Themistocles, Camillus, Pericles, Fabius, Alcibiades, Coriolanus, Timoleon, Æmilius Paulus, Pelopidas, Marcellus, Aristides, Marcus Cato, Philopœmen, Flamininus, Pyrrhus, Caius Marius, Lysander, Sylla, Cimon, Lucullus, Nicias, Crassus, Sertorius, Eumenes, Agesilaus, Pompey, Alexander, Cæsar, Phocion, Cato the younger, Agis, Cleomenes, Tiberius Gracchus, Caius Gracchus, Demosthenes, Cicero, Demetrius, Antony, Dion, Marcus Brutus, Aratus, Artaxerxes, Galba, and Otho. Plutarch’s “Lives” remains today as one of the most important historical accounts of the classical period.

At fifteen hundred pages, Plutarch certainly looks daunting to the potential reader. There is no doubt that he is indispensable to classicists and an important source to writers as disparate as Shakespeare and the Founding Fathers. But is it worth devoting many, many hours to read all fifteen hundred pages of this earliest of biographers?For me, the answer is simple. No. Too much of Plutarch is the same. Encomium after encomium of exemplars of Roman virtue. A better translation is manliness. These heroes slaughter thousands in their quest for personal glory. They can be immoral towards their family, their wives in particular (rarely more than foils for Plutarch), and imperious towards those more plebeian as long as they are not dissolute and show courage in battle. All these portraits start running together—one courageous general after another with only the occasional anecdote to distinguish them.I came, I saw and I read it. I just do not recommend the experience to any but specialists in Greco-Roman civ.
