The thirteen original essays in this volume range over Plutarch’s relations with his contemporaries and his engagement in philosophical debate, his views on social issues such as education and gender, his modes of expression and his construction of argument. Also treated here are Plutarch’s understanding and use of his antecedents, literary and historical, and the sophisticated techniques with which he conveyed his own historical vision. It is a theme of the present book that the writings of Plutarch should be seen as the product of a single, extraordinarily capacious, intelligence. - Judith Mossman, the editor of this volume, convened the conference of the International Plutarch Society in Dublin in 1994. She is also the author of Wild Justice: A Study of Euripides’ Hecuba (OUP, 1995). Dr Mossman lectures at Trinity College, Dublin.
