ALEXANDER THE GREAT, Project by JJP - 0 views

  •  
    This site is not particullarly reliable, it is more of a third party website made by someone who wants to provide information on Alexander the Great. What it useful about it is it's bibliography, it provides a lot of information on the sources on Alexander. I would recomend using this to find out who the sources are, and then try to research further into them.

    In a couple of sources it mentions that on alexanders date of birth a temple burnt down. a powerful symbol and great publicity for alexander (to add to his long line of related gods). this source simply corroborates this.

Justin: Epitome of the Philippic History of Pompeius Trogus, Book 9 - 0 views

  • To Philip succeeded his son Alexander, a prince greater than his father, both in his virtues and his vices. Each of the two had a different mode of conquering; the one prosecuted his wars with open force, the other with subtlety; the one delighted in deceiving his enemies, the other in boldly repulsing them. The one was more prudent in council, the other more noble in feeling. The father would dissemble his resentment, and often subdue it; when the son was provoked, there was neither delay nor bounds to his vengeance. They were both too fond of wine, but the ill effects of their intoxication were totally different; the father would rush from a banquet to face the enemy, cope with him, and rashly expose himself to dangers; the son vented his rage, not upon his enemies, but his friends. A battle often sent away Philip wounded; Alexander often left a banquet12 stained with the blood of his companions. The one wished to reign with his friends, the other to reign over them. The one preferred to be loved, the other to be feared. To literature both gave equal attention. The father had more cunning, the son more honour. Philip was more staid in his words, Alexander in his actions. The son felt readier and nobler impulses to spare the conquered; the father showed no mercy even to his allies. The father was more inclined to frugality, the son to luxury. By the same course by which the father laid the foundations of the empire of the world, the son consummated the glory of conquering the whole world.

    I like the fact that this website has the choice on who you can pick to read about whether its Alexander or Olympias ect. Although this website may be too one-sided as it focuses on the Macedonian's which isn't much of a variety.
