何についての本か
プルタルコスの随想。『対比列伝』ではなく、『モラリア（倫理論集）』と呼ばれるほうである。怒り、饒舌、迷信、子どもの教育、デルポイの神託、月面に見える顔について——数十篇の短編からなる。
背景と歴史
両者を混同しないでおきたい。本目録には『対比列伝』もあれば、こちらもある。読まれることは少ないが、より多彩なプルタルコスの半面だ。ここからは、彼がデルポイの神官であったこと、そしてあらゆる事柄に関心を寄せていたことが見てとれる。友情や心の平静について彼から引かれる一節の多くも、ここに出てくる。帰属の疑わしい論考もいくつか含まれるが、これほど大きな集成では珍しいことではない。

fitting. I am sure, Heraclides went away disgusted with us, for handling Epicurus and Aletrodorus more roughly than they deserved. Yet you may remember, replied Theon, how you told them that Colotes himself, compared with the rhetoric of those two gentlemen, would appear the complaisantest man alive; for when they have raked together the lewdest terms of ignominy the tongue of man ever used, as buffooneries, trollings, arrogancies, whorings, assassinations, whining counterfeits, black-guards, and blockheads, they faintly throw them in the faces of Aristotle, Socrates, Pythagoras, Protagoras, Theophrastus, Heraclides, Hipparchus, and which not, even of the best and most celebrated authorities. So that, should they pass for very knowing men upon all other accounts, yet their very calumnies and reviling language would bespeak them at the greatest distance from philosophy imaginable. For emulation can never enter that godlike consort, nor such fretfulness as wants resolution to conceal its own resentments. Aristodemus then subjoined: Heraclides, you know, is a great philologist; and that may be the reason why he made Epicurus those amends for the poetic din (so, that party style poetry) and for the fooleries of Homer; or else, it may be, it was because Metrodorus had libelled that poet in so many books. But let us let these gentlemen pass at present, Zeuxippus, and rather return to what was charged upon the philosophers in the beginning of our discourse, that it is impossible to live according to their tenets. And I see not why we two may not despatch this affair betwixt us, with the good assistance of Theon; for I find this gentleman (meaning me) is already tired. Then Theon said to him, Our fellows have that garland from us won; therefore, if you please, Let's fix another goal, and at that run.…
