Softcover. Etat : Good. A few superficial external scuffs and bumps. Text lightly discoloured with age, but otherwise clean and fresh. Otherwise, in good overall condition. Publisher's note: One of the greatest essayists of the Greco-Roman world, Plutarch (c. AD 46 -120) used an encyclopedic knowledge of the Roman Empire to produce a compelling and individual voice. In this selection from his writings, he offers personal insights into moral subjects that include the virtue of listening, the danger of flattery and the avoidance of anger, alongside more speculative essays on themes as diverse as God's slowness to punish man, the use of reason by supposedly 'irrational' animals and the death of his own daughter. These essays offer a treasure-trove of ancient wisdom, myth and philosophy, and a powerful insight into a deeply intelligent man. Size: 19.6 x 13 x 2.5 cm. 448 pp. Shipped Weight: Under 500 grams. Category: Literature & Literary; Greek essays--Translations into English; Ethics--Early works to 1800; ISBN/EAN: 9780140445640. Add. Inventory No: 260210AN639.…
