Excerpt from Roman Problems From and After Plutarch's Roman Questions: With Introductory Essay on Roman Worship and Belief
Consequently the chief value of Plutarch's treatise, apart from its charm of manner, lies rather in the questions asked than in the answers given. Our interest is stimulated less by what is said than by what is left unsaid.
In the selection which I have made from the one hundred and thirteen questions on Roman customs and antiquities, I have confined myself almost wholly to the problems of ritual and religion; prefacing Plutarch's queries with a sketch of Roman and Italian beliefs, and supplementing them with a dozen extra questions on subjects which Plutarch might have asked but did not. I have tried in these last to imagine what Plutarch would have written if he had lived in modern times, and had had access to the sources of modern information. If, as is not unlikely, the attempt has been a failure, the responsibility is not with the authorities but with the lack of skill in handling them.
