Plutarch
Plutarch (c. 46–c. 120 CE) wrote Parallel Lives — paired biographies of Greek and Roman figures that taught Europe how to read character through history. Moralist, essayist, and storyteller, he cared less for chronicle than for what a life reveals. Shakespeare mined him; Montaigne loved him. Our catalogue's volumes of the Lives remain a classic school of ambition, virtue, and failure.
