About this listen

Plutarchs's (46-120 A.D.) epic chronicle of the lives of great Grecians and Romans. Beginning with the founding of Rome and Athens, the lives of the men who created the ancient world are brought to life in this new, high quality recording. Greats such as Romulus, Pericles, Theseus, Lycurgus, and many others come alive as their politics, economy, and their individual stories play out in the time of the Ancients. This translation by John Dryden, which is considered by scholars to be the quintessential translation.

I have read quite a few primary sources in my day, and sadly quite a lot of them has been butchered by poor recording and narrating. But this one is very mucj enjoyable, and comfortable to listen to. This recording of Plutarch is one I would most definatley recomend

An absoloute classic and a great read
