'''Plutarch''' (46 - c.122) was a [[Greeks|Greek]] [[historian]], [[philosopher]], [[Biography|biographer]], and [[priest]] who lived from 46 to 127 AD.
    
He wrote ''Parallel Lives'' (''Vitae Parallae''), comparing great [[Roman]] and Greek men, to illustrate the similarities between the peoples in an attempt to bring their societies into greater [[harmony]].  This goal, arguably realized, was an extension of the [[Hellenization]] of the [[Roman Republic]] that occurred in the centuries prior to Plutarch's life and could be seen in the merging of their pantheon of gods.
