Plutarch was a Platonist, but was open to the influence of the Peripatetics, and in some details even to Stoicism despite his criticism of their principles. He rejected only Epicureanism absolutely. He attached little importance to theoretical questions and doubted the possibility of ever solving them. He was more interested in moral and religious questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlutarch's writings had an enormous influence on English and French literature. Shakespeare paraphrased parts of Thomas North's translation of selected Lives in his plays, and occasionally quoted from them verbatim. Plutarch's influence declined in the 19\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e and 20\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e centuries, but it remains embedded in the popular ideas of Greek and Roman history. One of his most famous quotes was one that he included in one of his earliest works. \"The world of man is best captured through the lives of the men who created history.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 632\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.56 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 24, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52088528208173,"sku":"9781774761366","price":62.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/3185\/6429\/files\/the-complete-essays-of-plutarch-royal-collectors-edition-case-laminate-hardcover-with-jacket-hardcover-6402303.webp?v=1780163241","url":"https:\/\/ishookbooks.com\/products\/the-complete-essays-of-plutarch-royal-collectors-edition-case-laminate-hardcover-with-jacket-hardcover","provider":"iShook Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
