Alexander the Great MP3 Free Lecture

Professor Robin Fox begins a thorough biographical portrait of Alexander the Great in this first lecture for The Modern Scholar Series course: Alexander of Macedonia. Describing his subject right off that bat as probably the greatest king and conqueror the world has ever seen, Fox offers a brief sketch of Alexander as a historical figure and then provides the context of Alexander's time, place, and the most important people in his life. Throughout Alexander's short yet eventful reign, he was chronicled by court historians, and this has proven to be a mixed blessing for modern analysts when it comes to separating fact from fiction. This lecture is available on MP3 download exclusively through LearnOutLoud.com.

Evaluating Alexander the Great

Alexander the Great is the most famous king and conqueror known in the ancient world. In his lifetime, he was given honors equal to those of the gods. After his death, he became a legend and the “Alexander Romance� became the best-selling fiction of the medieval world. Esteemed Professor Robin Lane Fox has made the study of Alexander of Macedon the focus of his brilliant career. In these lectures, Professor Fox answers questions about Alexander that have percolated throughout history: Why did Alexander succeed? What was he like? How did he change the world and its history?
