  • - Volume I - Complete with Notes
    af Plutarch, George Long & Aubrey Stewart
    222,95 kr.

    This anthology of Plutarch's biographies boasts an excellent and highly readable translation by two scholars of classical literature.In this volume, we hear Plutarch's accounts of several iconic figures from Greek and Roman antiquity. Nominally arranged according to their moral successes and failings of the individuals concerned, the Lives are a stunning insight into how the figures of antiquity were perceived and chronicled relatively soon after passing into history.Written in the 2nd century A.D., the Lives were distributed en masse following the invention of the printing press in the early Renaissance. As well as being compelling biography, certain accounts of rulers such as Pericles are highly regarded as secondary sources by contemporary historians. In multiple cases, Plutarch compared and contrasted several of his biographical subjects. For instance early in this volume we find comparisons between Theseus and Romulus, wherein their morals, characteristics and actions are examined.

    An Inquiry Concerning Religion is a book written by George Long, originally published in 1855. The book is a philosophical exploration of religion, with Long delving into the nature of religious belief, the role of religion in society, and the relationship between religion and morality. Long draws on a wide range of philosophical and historical sources to support his arguments, including the works of Plato, Aristotle, and Kant. The book is divided into three parts, with the first part examining the nature of religion and the second part exploring the relationship between religion and morality. The third part of the book is devoted to a critique of Christianity, with Long arguing that the religion is flawed in its teachings and practices. Overall, An Inquiry Concerning Religion is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of one of the most important and complex topics in human history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
