Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Plutarch regularly shows that great leaders transcend their own purely material interests and petty, personal vanities. Noble ideals actually do matter, in government as in life." —Michael Dirda, Washington Post A brilliant new translation of five of history’s greatest lives from Plutarch, the inventor of biography. Pompey, Caesar, Cicero, Brutus, Antony: the names resonate across thousands of years. Major figures in the civil wars that brutally ended the Roman republic, their lives still haunt us as examples of how the hunger for personal power can overwhelm collective politics, how the exaltation of the military can corrode civilian authority, and how the best intentions can lead to disastrous consequences. Plutarch renders these history-making lives as flesh-and-blood characters, often by deftly marshalling small details such as the care Brutus exercised in his use of money or the disdain Caesar felt for the lofty eloquence of Cicero. Plutarch was a Greek intellectual who lived roughly one hundred years after the age of Caesar. At home in the world of Roman power, he preferred to live in the past, among the great figures of Greek and Roman history. He intended his biographical profiles to be mirrors of character that readers could use to inspire their own values and behavior—emulating virtues and rejecting flaws. For Plutarch, character was destiny for both the individual and the republic. He was our first master of the biographical form, a major source for Shakespeare and Gibbon. This edition features a new translation by Pamela Mensch that lends a brilliant clarity to Plutarch’s prose. James Romm’s notes guide readers gracefully through the people, places, and events named in the profiles. And Romm’s preface, along with Mary Beard’s introduction, provide the perfect frame for understanding Plutarch and the momentous history he narrates.

Book excerpt: The Annotated Edition of Volume 6 includes the full, unabridged text of Charlotte Mason's original work: A Philosophy of Education. All her words and wisdom have been retained while, at the same time, certain updates have been made for you, the modern reader.Charlotte wrote her six volumes of the Home Education Series from 1885-1921. Her frequent references can leave today's reader a bit frustrated, as she assumed that her readers would understand the context for each person, event, or book that she mentions. Without that context, the wisdom of her words can seem veiled and inaccessible for many readers.My goal in adding annotations is to highlight Charlotte's text and make it easier to read so that you gain a deeper understanding of her words and meaning.Once you understand the references and the context, it is the key to unlocking the gate. You are no longer bogged down with unfamiliar terminology and references. The words soar.THE ANNOTATED EDITION OF VOLUME 6 FEATURES:The text has been updated with a modern font that is easier to read.American spellings, not British, are used throughout.The original page numbers, as published in earlier editions of Charlotte's volumes, are in the margins so you can easily cross-reference other editions or study guides.Annotations have been added.The annotations provide context to help you better understand Charlotte's frequent references to the people, events, and culture of her time.Gain a deeper understanding of Charlotte Mason's philosophy with the Annotated Editions from A Charlotte Mason Plenary.For more information about the Charlotte Mason method of education, visit CMPLENARY.COM.
