Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “ALEXANDER THE GREAT opened a new era in the history of the world, and by his life’s work determined its development for many centuries. He is conspicuous among the great men of history, because this work was accomplished in so short a span; when he died, he had not yet reached his thirty-third year. It was as a great conqueror that he impressed the popular imagination of every race. He subdued the East and penetrated into India, that land of wonders. The legend about him, equally current in East and West, took him to the limits of the earth and even to the gates of Paradise. The permanent result of his life, however, was not the empire which he won by hard fighting, but the development of Greek civilisation into a civilisation which was worldwide. It is in this way that his influence has affected the history of mankind even down to our own time. He had first to create his empire; the decision of the battlefield had, as usual, to produce the external conditions for the new civilisation.” Originally published in 1932, Ulrich Wilcken’s distinguished biography of Alexander the Great is widely regarded as a classic, perfectly capturing Alexander’s true achievements and influence. Translated from German by G. C. Richards, Professor of Greek and Classical Literature at Oriel College, Oxford University.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Alexander the Great: His Personality and Deeds Dier. Like Caesar and Napoleon he was, however, pre-eminent for his administrative qualities and ex cept for his genius in this respect would have achieved little for mankind and certainly no lasting fame. We cannot conceive of Napoleon as having a superior as a soldier, but neither the studies of the great Corsican nor his experience prepared him to govern when he came to power, and it fell out that the structures he reared as Emperor fell about his ears like a house of cards, ere he ceased to rule.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the annals of history, few figures have commanded the awe and fascination quite like Alexander the Great. His name echoes through the corridors of time, synonymous with conquest, ambition, and a relentless pursuit of glory. But who was the man behind the legend? What drove him to carve out one of the largest empires the world has ever known, spanning from Greece to Egypt, Persia to India? Step into the pages of this captivating biography, a journey that will transport you back to the tumultuous era of antiquity, where empires rose and fell at the whim of ambitious rulers. From the moment of his birth, Alexander was destined for greatness, born into the royal lineage of Macedon, his legacy etched in the stars. But greatness, as history has shown, comes at a price. Follow in the footsteps of a young prince thrust onto the stage of history before his time, as he grapples with the weight of his inheritance and the burden of expectation. From his tutelage under the tutelage of the famed philosopher Aristotle to his meteoric rise to power upon the assassination of his father, King Philip II, every step of Alexander's journey is fraught with intrigue and danger. As he ascends to the throne of Macedon, Alexander's thirst for conquest knows no bounds. With an army at his back and a vision in his heart, he embarks on an epic campaign to conquer the known world, defying the odds and defying the gods themselves. From the shores of Greece to the deserts of Persia, from the heights of Mount Olympus to the banks of the Indus River, his conquests are the stuff of legend, inspiring awe and fear in equal measure. But behind the glittering facade of empire lies a man tormented by demons both real and imagined. As Alexander's power grows, so too does the paranoia and mistrust that threatens to tear his kingdom apart from within. Betrayal lurks around every corner, and even those closest to him are not immune to the allure of power. With each victory, the stakes grow higher, and the cost of ambition becomes ever more apparent. As Alexander pushes further eastward, into the unknown realms of India, his empire stretches to its breaking point, straining under the weight of its own hubris. And as he gazes upon the vast expanse of his conquests, he is forced to confront the ultimate question: at what cost, glory? In this meticulously researched and riveting account, the enigma of Alexander the Great is laid bare, his triumphs and tragedies intertwined in a narrative as gripping as it is enlightening. From his rise to power to his untimely demise, every twist and turn of his epic journey is brought to life with vivid detail and cinematic flair. Prepare to be captivated, enthralled, and ultimately, transformed by the saga of one of history's most enduring figures. For in the story of Alexander the Great, we find not only the tale of a conqueror, but the story of humanity itself, grappling with the eternal quest for power, glory, and immortality.

This book was released on 2022-02-03 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alexander III of Macedon (356-323 BC) has for over 2000 years been one of the best recognized names from antiquity. He set about creating his own legend in his lifetime, and subsequent writers and political actors developed it. He acquired the surname 'Great' by the Roman period, and the Alexander Romance transmitted his legendary biography to every language of medieval Europe and the Middle East. As well as an adventurer who sought the secret of immortality and discussed the purpose of life with the naked sages of India, he became a model for military achievement as well as a religious prophet bringing Christianity (in the Crusades) and Islam (in the Qur'an and beyond) to the regions he conquered. This innovative and fascinating volume explores these and many other facets of his reception in various cultures around the world, right up to the present and his role in gay activism.
