He was married and the father of one daughter and four sons. He appears as a man of kindly character and independent thought, studious and learned. Plutarch wrote on many subjects. Most popular have always been the 46 Parallel Lives, biographies planned to be ethical examples in pairs (in each pair, one Greek figure and one similar Roman), though the last four lives are single. All are invaluable sources of our knowledge of the lives and characters of Greek and Roman statesmen, soldiers and orators. Plutarch's many other varied extant works, about 60 in number, are known as the Moralia or Moral Essays. They are of high literary value, besides being of great use to people interested in philosophy, ethics and religion. The Loeb Classical Library edition of the Moralia is in fifteen volumes, Volume XIII having two parts. 606 $aPhilosophers, Ancient$vBiography 615 0$aPhilosophers, Ancient 676 $a180 702 $aBabbitt$b Frank Cole 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996199051403316 996 $aMoralia$91692565 997 $aUNISA
