A comprehensive collection of translated sources on the wars and world of Alexanders successors Successors to Alexander the Great brings together--for the first time in a single collection--the essential translated sources for the tumultuous period following the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BCE. Spanning Greek, Latin, Persian Babylonian, Egyptian, and epigraphic materials, this volume provides direct access to a wide range of documents that illuminate the world and the wars of the Diadochi and the complex efforts to reassemble, rule, and redefine the fragments of Alexanders empire. Organized thematically and geographically, this book allows readers to explore the Successors ambitions, alliances, propaganda, and political innovation across a sprawling and multi-ethnic landscape.
