Synopsis:

Textual and historical notes supplement a segment of Plutarch's Lives which covers the rise of Macedonia.

About the Author: Plutarch's life spanned the second half of the 1st century AD. He was highly educated in rhetoric and philosophy at Athens but his deep interest in religion led him to Delphi, where he was eventually appointed a priesthood. He travelled, most crucially to Rome, where he lectured and made friends of considerable influence. He wrote and taught throughout his life.
