Rainer Hirsch-Luipold interprets the function of imagery in Plutarch's works in individual studies from a strictly literary and philosophical standpoint. For Plutarch, philosopher and priest, images cover different phenomena in art, literature and religion and emphasize the representative character of the entire visible world.
