Abstract
Plutarch's fame rests primarily and justly
on the Parallel Lives; but equally memorable is the
mass of miscellaneous writings known as the Moralia~
The traditional title Morals (or Ethical Essays) is
misleading, since at most, only a third of the
"essays" can be so described. The remaining twothirds
comprise a heterogeneous group of writings
on a wide range of subjects from First Century A~D.
science and religion to the aetiologies of Roman and
Greek customs and the wide ranging dinner conversations
of Plutarch and his friends.
