The historical writings of Plutarch's "Comparative Lives" are biographies of prominent historical figures, grouped in pairs, so that in each pair one biography of a Greek, the other of a Roman; in each pair, persons are selected that have similarities in some respect.
Contemporaries received information about 23 such couples. After each pair, a small article is given - "Comparison", where similar features are indicated. These biographies are of great importance for history: many writers from whom Plutarch borrowed information have not come down to us, so in some cases he remains our only source.
