Companion to Plutarch

"As a collection of essays on Plutarch the philosopher, moralist, biographer, and human being, Beck's c ompanion offers a well-rounded, enjoyable, and state-of-the-art introduction." ( New England Classical Journal , 1 May 2015)

"This book studies him in his broader contemporary and later contexts and will be invaluable to anyone, student or specialist, investigating the culture of Plutarch's times as well, of course, as the subject himself." ( Reference Reviews , 1 December 2014
