Description:

Not many of the people featured in Plutarch’s Parallel Lives series are honored with nicknames, but to his fellow Athenians, Aristides was known as “The Just”. A Grecian statesman, The Life of Aristides details the political rise of the man from the well-to-do family. From his career as Stratego, to his many statesman positions, his life ended in a mystery that is seemingly unbefitting the tale that Plutarch wove for him. Where or how he died, none know – but to Plutarch, his death mattered little next to his life. Author - Plutarch. Narrator - Andrea Giordani. Published Date - Sunday, 22 January 2023.
