Summary:This volume focusses on the reception of Alexander the Great from a broad and multifocal perspective, ranging from the description of the mirabilia associated with the late Eastern campaign to the contrasting characterisation of the king as a 'philosopher in arms' and an unbridled conqueror. The essays differ in the linguistic varieties, in the chronological range from the first Hellenism to the Renaissance, and in the chosen scientific approach.
