Abstracts

EN
The article analyzes Plutarch’s comments about women from several his works. The author of the article pays attention to fact that Plutarch not only thinks highly of a woman as a wife and a mother, but he awards to women the right to education and participation in virtues equally with men. The author doesn’t say that Plutarch is an advocate of the equality of women but she suggests that Plutarch stands out above his times. In the article the author makes an attempt to present that Plutarch’s thoughts about functions and virtues of women are based on his conception of human being and, in a broader sense, on Platonic metaphysics
