Synopsis

This volume assembles twelve challenging new papers by a distinguished international group of contributors focusing on the pivotal period between the death of Alexander the Great and the suicide of Cleopatra VII. Subjects range from settlement patterns, non-Greek populations and marginal peoples, through the personnel, rivalries and religious ideologies of the royal courts, to the wider question of the political structure of the Hellenistic world. Considerable attention is paid to the revolutionary art of the period and its reception by later generations.
