This book examines Plutarch`s narrative techniques in the Parallel Lives of drawing his readers into the process of moral evaluation and exposing them to the complexities involved in making moral judgements. It thus allows a point of entry into Plutarch`s praise-and-blame rhetoric in the Lives and elucidates the exact working of his readers` cooperative activity in reading about and forming the right judgement on the lives of the great men of history.
