Author Description

Excerpt from Plutarch's Life of Themistocles: With Introduction, Critical and Explanatory Notes, Indices and Map The Introduction remains nearly the same as before; Parts 111 and xv are, to some extent, an adaptation from the Einleitung of Fr. Blass, whose edition has otherwise been of great service to me. It was my intention to have added some observations on Plutarch's style and diction, but the limits of time and space have prevented me from carrying it out.
