THE
WORLD OF PHILIP AND ALEXANDER
A
SYMPOSIUM ON GREEK LIFE AND TIMES
Edited
by Elin P. Danien
The
magnetism of the man known as Alexander the Great, along with
that of his father, Philip of Macedon, is almost tangible, felt
by people in all times since that brilliant young conqueror
moved through the world more than two thousand years ago. Scholars
whose fields touch that power continue to be intrigued by these
two men and the ways in which their actions altered or contributed
significantly to Western culture. Contributors discuss the fourth
century B.C. from the point of view of the historical significance
of Philip, the foundations of Alexander’s empire in Egypt,
the ancient Olympics, religion, and Alexander’s last great
battle in India. Reprinted 2002. |
