![]() ![]() This made me feel stupid more than once, and when I feel stupid, I get grumpy. A Greek, he presumes each of his readers knows the history of this “first citizen of Athens”, but I remember nothing but a smattering of details: a bearded face topped by a helmet, the magnificence of the Acropolis, a great speech for the Greek’s war dead.īecause of this I was often confused, for Plutarch often told me why something happened but never told me what that something was. Perhaps this is because of his assumptions and my ignorance. ![]() I admit that I did not find this particular biography of Plutarch's to be as satisfying as some of the others. ![]()
