a| Plutarch's Lives of the Noble Greeks and Romans, commonly called Parallel Lives or Plutarch's Lives, is a series of 48 biographies of famous men, arranged in pairs to illuminate their common moral virtues or failings, probably written at the beginning of the second century AD.The surviving Parallel Lives (Greek: Βίοι Παράλληλοι, Bíoi Parállēloi) comprises 23 pairs of biographies, each pair consisting of one Greek and one Roman of similar destiny, such as Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar, or Demosthenes and Cicero.

a| André Dacier - a first-rate translator, keeper of the King's library and soon to be perpetual secretary of the Académie française - delivered his first six Lives in 1694. He dedicated his entire translation in 1721 to the future Louis XV. Dacier, who first translated for young people, corrected the pagan errors by earlier existing French translations of the Greek tex, and delivered a moralized Plutarch , which reigned in libraries throughout the 18th century.
