His friends were astonished, and asked the reason for his tears. "Do you not think," said he, "it is matter for sorrow that while Alexander, at my age, was already king of so many peoples, I have as yet achieved no brilliant success? - Plutarch, Life of Caesar

from a copy of plutarch’s de viris clarissimis. flanders, c. 1478-87

plutarch’s character is so intriguing and complicated. how he has been gunning for the rebellion since the beginning and questioning haymitch and the other tributes, the districts as a whole, why they don’t take a stand. fight back, rebel, because they outnumber the capitol.
but he’s also saying these things from a position of safety, of power. he doesn’t know what it’s like to be in the districts. and yes, there’s not much he can do to help, he has to wait until he’s gone up the ranks, can manipulate the games to free the tributes, jump start the rebellion.
but throughout all that, his character still throws me cause how did he feel when all those children died in his games? was he guilt ridden that he helped orchestrate their deaths? or did he convince himself that it was necessary, that they needed time to organize the rebellion?
i feel like i need a whole book about plutarch heavensbee and how his character grew, changed, evolved, over time.
haymitch very likely knew the effect finnick’s story could have on the captiol in propos. he’s the one who worked out an angle for Katniss and Peeta in the first games, not Effie. He knew how to play the crowd in his own games. He proposed authentic footage of Katniss in combat rather than studio propos. He knows a story and the way to tell it.
But even he knows there are some things that you don’t ask of people. So when Plutarch suggests Finnick tell his story in a propo, Haymitch, who had known Finnick since he won his games at 14, raised hell.
“But it’s my message to President Snow that gets the wheels spinning in Plutarch’s brain. He hastily calls Finnick and Haymitch over and they have a brief but intense conversation that I can see Haymitch isn’t happy with. Plutarch seems to win- Finnick’s pale but nodding his head by the end of it.”

Somehow Plutarch manages to be both my least favourite and my favourite character at the same time
XXVI. South.
I read from Plutarch that during the winter months Apollo was known to leave Delphi and go to the Hyperboreans (to the land of eternal spring), and at this time Dionysus usually took his place at the temple. During this period, the prophecies in the temple stopped, and the priests organized rituals and festivals in honor of Dionysus.
Although the myth itself has not been preserved to our time in written form from BC sources (perhaps due to the fact that it was strictly transmitted by word of mouth), archaeologists nevertheless found objects related to the cult of Dionysus near the Delphic temple: masks, vessels and other stuff.
Plutarch to Katniss before the quarterquell:
