Plutarch's Life of Themistocles is a biography of a charismatic and
controversial statesman. It is also a valuable historical document
to a key period of Greek history, the early 5th century BC. While
acknowledging the important ethical and literary dimensions of
Plutarch's biographical work, the author deliberately concentrates
on the historical aspects of the Life of Themistocles. The
commentary includes much detailed comparison of Plutarch's
narrative with those of other sources such as Herodotus,
Thucycides, Diodorus and Cornelius Nepos, in an attempt to dispel
the many myths and prejudices surrounding Themistocles and to
produce as accurate as possible a picture of both the man and his
period.
