http://www.gracchus.esmartweb.com/plutarch.htm

Extractions: Statue powered by FreeFind Plutarch Plutarch 75 A.C.E Tiberius Gracchus The land which the Romans conquered was partly sold and partly turned into common land. Laws were made to prevent the rich driving out the poor. This law restricted the amount of land someone could own to 500 There is much conflict between sources over the life of Tiberius, though the general consensus makes up the structure of his actions. That is Tiberius recognized a need for change to the structure of Roman socioeconomic system. Then, whether it be for personal reasons or for the plight of the people, Tiberius went all out in order to achieve the reforms. Tiberius got his bill passed by bypassing the senate; this is a little hazy in some of the accounts but all stress strongly that he was elected into the tribune where he could now pass his bill un obstructed. That was except for Octavius who vetoed the bill after pressure from the senate. Tiberius decided to run for tribune for a second year, an act that had never been done before and was deeply frowned upon by the senators. The senators then assassinated him or he was killed in a riot.

http://www.alcott.net/alcott/home/champions/Plutarch.html

Extractions: Plutarch was a Greek biographer and moralist who provided the New England Transcendentalists with source material illustrating heroic conduct and ethical conduct. Ralph Waldo Emerson appreciated Plutarch's Stoicism, and his early journals and sermons contain numerous references to Plutarch's Lives Amos Bronson Alcott commended Plutarch's Morals as strikingly contemporary and noble. The Fruitlands library owned copies of both the Lives and the Morals . The influence of Plutarch on the Transcendentalists is a reminder that the Transcendentalists were interested not only in mystical influxes of divinity and rapture in nature but also in behavior and character.

Plutarch On Alexander

http://www.shsu.edu/~his_ncp/PlutAlex.html

Extractions: Plutarch on Alexander [Plutarch, "Alexander," in The Lives of the Noble Grecians and Romans, John Dryden and Arthur H. Clough, trs. and eds. vol. 3 (Boston: Little, Brown, and Co., 1902)] At the time, nobody had any suspicion of his being poisoned, but upon some information given six years after, they say Olympias put many to death, and scattered the ashes of Iolaus, then dead, as if he had given it him. But those who affirm that Aristotle counselled Antipater to do it, and that by his means the poison was brought, adduced one Hagnothemis as their authority, who, they say, heard King Antigonus speak of it, and tell us that the poison was water, deadly cold as ice, distilled from a rock in the district of Nonacris, which they gathered like a thin dew, and kept in an ass's hoof; for it was so very cold and penetrating that no other vessel would hold it. However, most are of opinion that all this is a mere made-up story, no slight evidence of which is, that during the dissensions among the commanders, which lasted several days, the body continued clear and fresh, without any sign of such taint or corruption, though it lay neglected in a close sultry place. Roxana, who was now with child, and upon that account much honoured by the Macedonians, being jealous of Statira, sent for her by a counterfeit letter, as if Alexander had been still alive; and when she had her in her power, killed her and her sister, and threw their bodies into a well, which they filled up with earth, not without the privity and assistance of Perdiccas, who in the time immediately following the king's death, under cover of the name of Arrhidaeus, whom he carried about him as a sort of guard to his person, exercised the chief authority. Arrhidaeus, who was Philip's son by an obscure woman of the name of Philinna, was himself of weak intellect, not that he had been originally deficient either in body or mind, on the contrary, in his childhood, he had showed a happy and promising character enough. But a diseased habit of body, caused by drugs which Olympias gave him, had ruined, not only his health, but his understanding.

http://www.pantagruelion.com/p/s/10006.html

Extractions: Biographer and author, born c. AD 46, in Chaeronea, Boeotia, died after 119 . Among his approximately 227 works, the most important are the Bioi paralleloi (Parallel Lives), in which he recounts the noble deeds and characters of Greek and Roman soldiers, legislators, orators, and statesmen, and the Moralia , or Ethica, a series of more than 60 essays on ethical, religious, physical, political, and literary topics. Plutarch was the son of Aristobulus, himself a biographer and philosopher. In 66-67, Plutarch studied mathematics and philosophy at Athens under the philosopher Ammonius. Public duties later took him several times to Rome, where he lectured on philosophy, made many friends, and perhaps enjoyed the acquaintance of the emperors Trajan and Hadrian. According to the Suda lexicon (a Greek dictionary dating c. AD 1000), Trajan bestowed the high rank of an ex-consul upon him. Although this may be true, a report of a 4th-century church historian, Eusebius, that Hadrian made Plutarch governor of Greece is probably apocryphal. A Delphic inscription reveals that he possessed Roman citizenship; his nomen, or family name, Mestrius, was no doubt adopted from his friend Lucius Mestrius Florus, a Roman consul. Plutarch traveled widely, visiting central Greece, Sparta, Corinth, Patrae (Patras), Sardis, and Alexandria, but he made his normal residence at Chaeronea, where he held the chief magistracy and other municipal posts and directed a school with a wide curriculum in which philosophy, especially ethics, occupied the central place. He maintained close links with the Academy at Athens (he possessed Athenian citizenship) and with Delphi, where, from about 95, he held a priesthood for life; he may have won Trajan's interest and support for the then-renewed vogue of the oracle. The size of Plutarch's family is uncertain. In the

plutarch Robert Lamberton 2002 240 pp. This engaging and stimulating book introducesboth general readers and students to plutarchs own life and work.
http://www.yale.edu/yup/books/088108.htm

Extractions: Written around the year 100, Plutarchs Lives have shaped perceptions of the accomplishments of the ancient Greeks and Romans for nearly two thousand years. This engaging and stimulating book introduces both general readers and students to Plutarchs own life and work. Robert Lamberton sketches the cultural context in which Plutarch workedGreece under Roman ruleand discusses his family relationships, background, education, and political career. There are two sides to Plutarch: the most widely read source on Greek and Roman history and the educator whose philosophical and pedagogical concerns are preserved in the vast collection of essays and dialogues known as the Moralia. Lamberton analyzes these neglected writings, arguing that we must look here for Plutarchs deepest commitment as a writer and for the heart of his accomplishment. Lamberton also explores the connection between biography and historiography and shows how Plutarchs parallel biographies served the continuing process of cultural accommodation between Greeks and Romans in the Roman Empire. He concludes by discussing Plutarchs influence and reputation through the ages. An excellent book that offers real literary and historical criticism, sound scholarship, and an interesting interpretation of Plutarchs contribution and attitude.Frances B. Titchener, Utah State University
Plutarch
plutarch. Excerpts from plutarch's writings on education Adam Kissel. (using CharlesWilliam Super's tr., plutarch on Education (CW Bardeen Syracuse, NY, 1910)).
http://home.uchicago.edu/~ahkissel/plutarch.html

Extractions: Adam Kissel (using Charles William Super's tr., Plutarch on Education (C. W. Bardeen: Syracuse, N.Y., 1910)) "The Education of Boys" (ps.-Plutarch) We may remark in general terms regarding virtue what we are accustomed to say concerning the arts and sciences, namely, that three factors are essential to the formation of a well rounded character: phusis logos , and ethos . By instruction I understand the acquisition and imparting of knowledge; by ethos . Natural endowments are inborn; progress is a matter of education; application, of (exercise); while the highest excellence is the result of all combined. In so far as any of these is wanting, is necessarily defective. Natural endowments without education are blind; education, where there are no natural endowments, is inefficacious; and practice apart from both is incomplete and must fail of its end. In confirmation of these views I might say that the three combined and cooperated in the psychic powers of the men of glorious memory such as Pythagoras and Socrates and Plato and all who have won imperishable renown. Fortunate and favored of the gods is every one upon whom the gods have bestowed all these gifts. If any one thinks that lack of natural endowments can not be supplied by suitable instruction and practice in virtue he is very much, yes, altogether mistaken. For disuse destroys the best natural endowments while improves even weak ones. (49-50)

Extractions: from The Extended Circle by Jon Wynne-Tyson. Direct link: amazon.co.uk Can you really ask what reason Pythagoras had for abstaining from flesh? For my part I rather wonder both by what accident and in what state of soul or mind the first man did so, touched his mouth to gore and brought his lips to the flesh of a dead creature, he who set forth tables of dead, stale bodies and ventured to call food and nourishment the parts that had a little before bellowed and cried, moved and lived. How could his eyes endure the slaughter when throats were slit and hides flayed and limbs torn from limb? How could his nose endure the stench? How was it that the pollution did not turn away his taste, which made contact with the sores of others and sucked juices and serums from mortal wounds? The obligations of law and equity reach only to mankind, but kindness and benevolence should be extended to the creatures of every species, and these will flow from the breast of a true man, is streams that issue from the living fountain.

Extractions: Greek historian and biographer who wrote about the possibilities of lunar life in his De Facie in Orbe Lunae (On the face which appears in the Moon) in 70 A.D. He wondered whether the Moon's apparent lack of clouds might mean it was intolerably dry, but decided on balance that the dark areas were probably seas (see Moon, water on ). Today, that description still survives in the naming of these regions as maria . See Lucian of Samosata ancient philosophy, related to the possibility of extraterrestrial life

http://www.extraordinarylistening.com/resources/plutarch.html

Extractions: Plutarch was born c. 45 A.D. and died c. 125 A.D. He chronicled the lives and history of the most influential people in the Greco-Roman empires as well as essays on a wide range of religious, philosophical, scientific and moral topics. He also had a lot to say about listening which we think you might enjoy. Since both the benefits and the dangers inherent in listening are equally great, I am of the opinion that listening ought to be a constant topic of discussion in one's own mind and with other people. This is especially so because it is noticeable that most people go about the matter in the wrong way: they practice speaking before they have got used to listening. They think that speaking takes study and care, but benefits will accrue from even a careless approach to listening. In speech proper receptivity is prior to delivery just as conception and pregnancy precede the birth of the viable offspring. Speech of people who are incapable of listening and unused to benefiting from listening is truly (impotent). Nature gave each of us two ears, but one tongue, because we should listen more than we speak.
