Moralia is the Latin name for the collected essays of Plutarch of Chaeronea, a Greek biographer and moral philosopher who lived and wrote during the early Roman Empire.
Brigette Russell, author of this blog, came to admire the Moralia and their humane and erudite author while using them as source material for her doctoral dissertation. Though trained as an ancient historian, she presently writes a political column for the New Mexico Independent, and spends the rest of her days in a world of diapers, dirty dishes and Dr. Seuss.
