Agis Et Cleomenes (1839) [Latin]

By Plutarch

Book Overview

Agis et Cleomenes est opus Plutarchi, scriptoris Graeci, quod anno MDCCCXXXIX editum est. Libellus de vita et moribus Agis et Cleomenis, duorum regum Lacedaemoniorum, tractat. Plutarchus describit initium et finem eorum regnorum, et eorum res gestas, ut etiam virtutes et vitia eorum. Agis, qui regnavit post Alexandrum Magnum, conatus est rem publicam reformare, ut paupertas et avaritia, quae Lacedaemonem affligebant, mitigarentur. Cleomenes, qui regnavit post Agidem, similiter conatus est rem publicam reformare, sed per violentiam et sanguinem. Plutarchus narrat de vita eorum, ut etiam de morte, quae infortunata fuit. Libellus historiae antiquae est, sed adhuc valde utile et instructivum.This Book Is In Latin.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
