The Hellenistic Monarchies

Abstract

Alexander the Great and his main successors changed the Mediterranean World in the course of two centuries, their realms extending from the Adriatic to the Indus and from the Black Sea to Ethiopia. Hellenistic Monarchies is a collection of essays on Alexander the Great and the powerful rulers that followed him, including the Ptolemies of Egypt, the Seleucids of Asia, the Antigonids of Macedonia and Greece, and the Attalids of Pergamum. Habicht presents his latest research on the reign of these distinct monarchies, focusing particularly on their relations with each other, and their interactions with the Greek cities inside their domain. Making use of the latest epigraphical evidence from newly found inscriptions, this collection will be of great interest to those in the fields of post-classical Greek history and society, as well as those investigating the Greek and Macedonian interactions with Asia, Egypt, and their Jewish and Palestinian neighbors.
