Title: Gestos, palabras y actitudes en el De facie in orbe Lunae de Plutarco
Authors: Pérez Jiménez, Aurelio
Issue Date: 2003
Publisher: International Plutarch Society
Abstract: In this article, we offer an analysis of some compositional features in the first part of Plutarch’s dialog De facie in or be Lunae. Firstly, we propose a stylistic use of the verbal forms ehrov, ehre / €φη(ν) to distinguish the principal and the secondary characters, so as to point out the nuances of their interventions; secondly, we essay to elucidate the addressees of Lucius’ and Lamprias’ principal expositions; and, thirdly, we underline the importance of some dramatic elements in the structure of the diatribe. We can imagine the discussion in this dialogue as a lively debate, where not only the words, but also the speakers’ attitudes and gestures play an important role. Through them, Plutarch lets us know -sometimes ironically- his philosophical sympathies and antipathies, giving us enough proofs of his ability to make a precise characterization of his literary personages.
