Exégesis de los monarcas ptolemaicos en Plutarco: interpretación de los personajes en las traducciones europeas

Abstract

When Plutarch writes about the Ptolemaic kings he doesn't use to specify their nicknames so it's often difficult to realise whom he is talking about. This paper will try to clear some confusions in relation to this lack of precision in Plutarch's texts and analyse reflections of those interpretation problems in the European translations.
