Plutarch's Lives, written at the beginning of the second century A.D., is a brilliant social history of the ancient world by one of the greatest biographers and moralists of all time. In what is by far his most famous and influential work, Plutarch reveals the character and personality of his subjects and how they led ultimately to tragedy or victory. Richly anecdotal and full of detail, Volume I contains profiles and comparisons of Romulus and Theseus, Numa and Lycurgus, Fabius and Pericles, and many more powerful figures of ancient Greece and Rome.
The present translation, originally published in 1683 in conjunction with a life of Plutarch by John Dryden, was revised in 1864 by the poet and scholar Arthur Hugh Clough, whose notes and preface are also included in this edition.

評分1.译名与国内常见译名不统一,且差别很大; 2.翻译拗口,不流畅。 作为非专业的普通读者读这种大部头不是花钱找罪受的。其实出版社在规范译名,润色文章方面是可以多花些精力的。 草率的翻译,“毁”了经典,普通读者不如对着人名查英文维基百科。
評分前言 奢侈逸乐是奴性的标志,刻苦自励才是高贵的表征----------亚历山大大帝 如普鲁塔克所说:我开始着手为英雄豪杰写传记的目的是为了娱乐他人,等到陷身其中不能自拔,才知道所有一切完全是嘉惠自己。这些伟大人物的德行对我而言就像一面镜子,以人为鉴主要是指点我们的人生...
