antická literatura v anglickém překladu `I treat the narrative of the Lives as a kind of mirror...The
experience is like nothing so much as spending time in their company
and living with them: I receive and welcome each of them in turn as my
guest.'
In the nine lives of this collection Plutarch
introduces the reader to the major figures and periods of classical
Greece. He portrays virtues to be emulated and vices to be avoided, but
his purpose is also implicitly to educate and warn those in his own day
who wielded power. In prose that is rich, elegant and sprinkled with
learned references, he explores with an extraordinary degree of insight
the interplay of character and political action. While drawing chiefly
on historical sources, he brings to biography a natural story-teller's
ear for a good anecdote.
Throughout the ages Plutarch's Lives have been valued for their
historical value and their charm. This new translation will introduce
new generations to his urbane erudition. The most comprehensive
selection available, it is accompanied by a lucid introduction,
explanatory notes, bibliographies, maps and indexes.
