Life of Caesar

Part of Parallel Lives
Book • 1919
Plutarch's 'Life of Caesar' is a biography of Julius Caesar written in the beginning of the 2nd century AD. Unlike most of Plutarch's works, this biography is more historical and secular, lacking moral judgement and divine elements.

It draws heavily from sources such as the lost 'Histories' of Asinius Pollio and the works of Cicero.

The book is part of 'Parallel Lives', where Plutarch pairs Caesar with Alexander the Great to draw parallels between Greek and Roman statesmen.
