The Unity of Plutarch's Work

Sinopsis del Libro

Libro The Unity of Plutarch's Work

This volume of collected essays explores the premise that Plutarch's work, notwithstanding its amazing thematic multifariousness, constantly pivots on certain ideological pillars which secure its unity and coherence. So, unlike other similar books which, more or less, concentrate on either the Lives or the Moralia or on some particular aspect(s) of Plutarch's oeuvre, the articles of the present volume observe Plutarch at work in both Lives and Moralia, thus bringing forward and illustrating the inner unity of his varied literary production. The subject-matter of the volume is uncommonly wide-ranging and the studies collected here inquire into many important issues of Plutarchean scholarship: the conditions under which Plutarch's writings were separated into two distinct corpora, his methods of work and the various authorial techniques employed, the interplay between Lives and Moralia, Plutarch and politics, Plutarch and philosophy, literary aspects of Plutarch's oeuvre, Plutarch on women, Plutarch in his epistemological and socio-historical context. In sum, this book brings Plutarchean scholarship to date by revisiting and discussing older and recent problematization concerning Plutarch, in an attempt to further illuminate his personality and work.

Un experimento de crítica literaria

Libro Un experimento de crítica literaria

Un clásico de C. S. Lewis que nace de la convicción de que la literatura existe para el deleite del lector y que los libros deben ser juzgados por el tipo de lectura que invitan. Clive Lewis sostiene que la "buena lectura", al igual que la acción moral o la experiencia religiosa, implica la entrega a la obra en cuestión y un proceso de entrar de lleno en las opiniones de los demás: "al leer la gran literatura me convierto en mil hombres y sigo siendo yo mismo". Para su idea de juzgar la literatura es fundamental el compromiso de dejar de lado las expectativas y los valores ajenos a la...
