Πλουτάρχου Βίοι Παράλληλοι - Τόμος 3 by Plutarch
"Πλουτάρχου Βίοι Παράλληλοι - Τόμος 3" by Plutarch is a volume from a biographical series written at the beginning of the second century. This collection pairs biographies of famous Greeks and Romans—matching figures like Alexander the Great with Julius Caesar—to illuminate shared moral virtues and failings. Rather than historical accounts, these literary portraits explore how character shapes destiny, offering readers psychological insights and moral lessons through comparison. Plutarch draws from ancient manuscripts
to bridge distant Greek heroes with Rome's more recent past. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
