Abstract

Im ersten Teil der vorliegenden Untersuchungen geht es darum, die einander häufig widersprechenden Stränge der antiken historiographischen Alexander-Überlieferung differenziert nach ihrer Zeitstellung und vorherrschenden Tendenz zu erfassen und zu bewerten. Dabei spielt auch ein neues literaturgeschichtliches Papyrus-Fragment eine wichtige Rolle. Im 2. Teil des Buchs werden die wichtigsten epigraphischen Dokumente der Alexander-Ära eingehend und in ihrem jeweiligen Zeithorizont gewürdigt, um die Grundzüge der Hellas-Politik des Königs - Polis-Demokratie und "Freiheit" ohne hegemonialen Zwang, aber unter gottköniglicher Oberhoheit - besser zu erfassen. Die besprochenen Dokumente befinden sich im Anhang (in Übersetzungen mit griechischem Original). The first part of this study addresses problems of dating and analyzing the ancient literary tradition of Alexander in the light of new papyrus evidence and a critical appraisal of the research. The second part uses major written documents from the Alexandrine period to investigate the fundamental aspects of the king’s Hellenic policy.

Abstract

"Coinage is one of our key sources for the rich and fascinating history of the Hellenistic world (323-31 BC). This book provides students of the period with an up-to-date introduction to Hellenistic gold, silver and bronze coins in their cultural and economic contexts. It also offers new perspectives on four major themes in contemporary Hellenistic history: globalisation, identity, political economy and ideology. With more than 250 illustrations, and written in a lucid and accessible style, this book sheds new light on the diverse and multicultural societies of the Hellenistic world, from Alexander to Augustus. The author assumes no prior knowledge of Hellenistic history, and all Greek and Latin texts are translated throughout"--
