~ENG~This volume offers a new translation and full commentary on Plutarch’s essay Precepts of Statecraft (Praecepta gerendae rei publicae), written as a letter to a young Greek in Sardeis (Asia Minor), willing to embark on a career as a politician in his Roman-ruled native state. The accompanying essays elucidate the general contemporary situation in the Roman provinces of Achaea and Asia – especially by taking a close look at the epigraphical evidence – and the literary qualities of Plutarch’s treatise.
Der vorliegende Band bietet eine vollstandige neue Ubersetzung und Kommentierung der Politischen Ratschlage (Praecepta gerendae rei publicae) Plutarchs von Chaironeia (Provinz Achaea), die sich als ein Sendschreiben an einen jungen Hellenen aus Sardeis (Provinz Asia) vorstellen, der in die Stadtpolitik seiner Heimat unter den Bedingungen der romischen Oberhoheit eintreten will. Die interpretierenden Essays erlautern, vor allem anhand relevanter Inschriften-Zeugnisse, die politischen Rahmenbedingungen in Achaea und Asia und wurdigen den spezifisch literarischen Charakter der Denkschrift.
