Conference on Plutarch

Plutarch has, over the last thirty years, been the subject of an
increasingly serious and creative study. Plutarch's attraction partly stems
from his diverse portrayal of past and present, as he is simultaneously
philosopher and historian, entertainer and moralist, husband and politician.
As such, his value to our understanding of antiquity is as great as his
subject matter is wide. This conference is intended to reflect not only the
range of Plutarch's interests, but also the different ways by which we, as
modern scholars, may study his various themes.
