description Bound together by the guiding theme of philhellenic benefaction, Cimon and Lucullus are the statesmen compared by Plutarch in another volume of Parallel Lives. While Lucullus distinguishes himself as a benefactor of the biographer’s home town and the Greek world during the Mithridatic Wars, Cimon emerges as an emblematic figure of the freedom and unity of the Greeks in the fight against the Persians. However, both protagonists also show defects and weaknesses, both in terms of excesses and extravagances in private life and, despite great political and military successes, in their interaction with the multitude and with their peers. Thus, Plutarch invites his readers to reflect on the qualities and shortcomings displayed by his heroes in the historical context of fifth-century Athens and late Republican Rome as well as in light of the challenges posed by their own present.

Published Ligados pelo tema condutor dos benefícios filelénicos, Címon e Luculo são os estadistas que Plutarco coteja em mais um volume de Vidas Paralelas. Enquanto Luculo se distingue como benfeitor da cidade natal do biógrafo e do mundo helénico durante as Guerras Mitridáticas, Címon emerge como figura emblemática da liberdade e da unidade dos gregos na luta contra os persas. Contudo, ambos os protagonistas também apresentam defeitos e fraquezas, tanto em termos de excessos e extravagâncias na vida privada como, apesar de grandes sucessos políticos e militares, na interação com a multidão e com os seus pares. Assim, Plutarco convida os seus leitores a refletirem sobre as qualidades e imperfeições evidenciadas pelos seus heróis no contexto histórico da Atenas do século V e da Roma tardo-republicana assim como à luz dos desafios do seu próprio presente. 2025-07-16T13:33:55Z 2025-07-16T13:33:55Z 2021-11 book 978-989-26-2214-9 978-989-26-2215-6 https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/162894 por Classica Digitalia: Autores Gregos e Latinos: textos image/jpeg Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International https://doi.org/10.14195/978-989-26-2215-6 Coimbra University Press Coimbra University Press 10.14195/978-989-26-2215-6 Ligados pelo tema condutor dos benefícios filelénicos, Címon e Luculo são os estadistas que Plutarco coteja em mais um volume de Vidas Paralelas.
