Plutarch - Is He an Unusual Person?

Plutarch is a very important figure in this tradition, not least because we have lots of texts from him. Beyond that fact, it's again, very hard to tell an exactly, because we don't have many texts by these other er authors. One could think that plutarch has an exceptional position, cause he is one of the few people who pays attention to this aparatic, diological aspect of plato's philosophy. But at the same time develops a dogmatic system and a system that somehow underlies his more practical ethical writings.
