Autorenporträt
Plutarch, born Lucius Mestrius Plutarchus in Chaeronea, Greece, was a Greek Middle Platonist philosopher, historian, biographer, essayist, and priest at the Temple of Apollo in Delphi. He is best known for Parallel Lives, a series of biographies comparing notable Greeks and Romans, and Moralia, a collection of essays and speeches on various philosophical, ethical, and social issues. Influenced by philosophers such as Plato, Menander, and Posidonius, Plutarch's works sought to provide moral lessons and insights through historical figures, blending philosophy with biographical narrative. He played a significant role in preserving the lives and deeds of influential historical figures, offering lessons in virtue and leadership. Plutarch's writings, though written in Greek, were intended for both Greek and Roman audiences, and his works have influenced countless thinkers, writers, and leaders throughout history. He died in Delphi, where he had spent much of his life. He had several children, including Plutarch II, Autobulus, and Timoxena Jr., and was the brother of Lamprias and Timon.
