Plutarch, full name Mestrius Plutarch is an ancient Greek writer and philosopher, a public figure of the Roman era.
In his youth in Athens, Plutarch studied mathematics, rhetoric and philosophy, the latter mainly from the Platonist Ammonius. Subsequently, the Peripatetics and Stoics had a significant influence on the philosophical views of Plutarch. He himself considered himself a Platonist, but in reality he was more of an eclectic, and in philosophy he was mainly interested in its practical application. Even in his youth, Plutarch, together with his brother Lamprius and teacher Ammonius, visited Delphi, where the decayed cult of Apollo was still preserved. This journey had a serious impact on the life and literary activity of Plutarch.
