Moralia

The Moralia (: — loosely translatable as Matters relating to customs and mores) of the first-century Greek priest Plutarch of Delphi is an eclectic collection of 78 essays and transcribed speeches. They give an insight into Roman and Greek life, but often are also fascinating timeless observations in their own right. Many generations of Europeans have read or imitated them, including  Montaigne and the Renaissance Humanists and Enlightenment philosophers.
