Plutarch's Greeks and Romans Podcast
Plutarch’s Greeks and Romans is a podcast inspired by Plutarch’s ancient collection of biographies of famous Grecians and Romans.
Plutarch was both a Greek and a Roman citizen living during the Pax Romana - the Golden Age of the Roman Empire.
Our podcast will explore 50+ persons Plutarch believed were most influential in the rise of Greek and Roman civilization, from legends such as Theseus and Romulus to conquerors like Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar.
