Plutarch, Pomp. 40 (ca. A.D. 100):
Nevertheless, Pompeius succeeded in making Demetrius rather less obnoxious to other people by the way in which he calmly put up with his impertinence. It is said, for instance, that at entertainments, while Pompeius was waiting to receive his other guests, Demetrius was often to be seen already reclining at the table, perfectly at his ease and with the hood of his toga pulled down over his ears....

This article refers to the General of the Roman republic. For other uses, see Pompeius. He had descendants also called Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus.
Pompey the Great /Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus (Latin: CN·POMPEIVS·CN·F·SEX·N·MAGNVS¹), known in English as Pompey the Great (September 29, 106 BC – September 29, 48 BC) was a distinguished and ambitious Roman general and politician of the 1st century BC. Pompey distinguished himself as a talented military leader under the dictatorship of Lucius Cornelius Sulla. For his military exploits against the pirates in the Mediterranean Sea and in eastern Rome he earned the cognomen of Magnus or the Great. (Although, according to Plutarch's work on the subject, Pompey was awarded this title prior to those campaigns, during some of Sulla's "mopping-up" operations against the Marians.)

Εξαρτάται. ¨-) Αν το κείμενο είναι αγγλικό ή λατινικό. ΄-) Πάντα για τους βίους του Πλουτάρχου βέβαια. Και του Μαρκαντωνάτου το "Ιλιάς" έχει ένα βάρος, αλλά θα πάρω Ιλιάδα./Nighty-night ;-)

Pompey vs Pompeius [not for grading]
Ανοίγω τον Plutarch στη μετάφραση που ονομάζεται the Dryden translation (είχε σαν γενικό επιμελητή τον John Dryden και έγινε στα 1683-86) και ενώ όλοι σχεδόν οι Ρωμαίοι που τα ονόματά τους λήγουν σε -us διατηρούν τα -us τους, ο Αντώνιος είναι Antony και ο Πομπήιος Pompey. Δεν γνωρίζω αν ο ένοχος είναι ο Σέξπιρ που επικράτησαν αυτές οι εξαγγλισμένες μορφές (αυτό υποψιάζομαι), αλλά όταν οι Αγγλοι λένε Pompey εννοούν τον Pompeius Magnus (Pompey the Great τον έχει κι η Britannica) κι όταν λένε Mark Antony εννοούν τον Marcus Antonius της Κλεοπάτρας (γνωστό και ως Richard Burton της Elizabeth Taylor).
Στη μετάφραση του The Lives of the Twelve Caesars του Σουητώνιου που κυκλοφόρησε το 1920 αποκαταστάθηκαν τα Pompeius αντί του Pompey και Marcus Antonius αντί του Mark Antony, αλλά δεν νομίζω να έχει γίνει κάτι τέτοιο στον Πλούταρχο γιατί ακόμα κυκλοφορούν μεταφράσεις βασισμένες στην Dryden translation.
Οπότε στο γλωσσάρι μπορούν (και πρέπει) να μπουν και τα δύο δίπλα σ' ένα σκέτο "Πομπήιο", αλλά κάθε αναφορά στον Πομπήιο του Πλούταρχου πρέπει να παραμένει Pompey μια και φέρει την κληρονομιά του Σέξπιρ και του Ντράιντεν.
