  • Resumen

  • Plutarch’s Greeks and Romans is a podcast inspired by Plutarch’s ancient collection of biographies of famous Grecians and Romans.

    Plutarch was both a Greek and a Roman citizen living during the Pax Romana - the Golden Age of the Roman Empire.

    Our podcast will explore 50 persons Plutarch believed were most influential in the rise of Greek and Roman civilization, from legends such as Theseus and Romulus to conquerors like Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar.

    Plutarch had no shortage of great people and stories to tell us about about these people who shaped their times and ours!

    Furius Camillus, whom many historians, Plutarch included, say is the second founder of Rome and in my opinion is one of the greatest Roman leaders at least up until the Empire, and even then, still holds his own!
