Description
Great Power Diplomacy in the Hellenistic World explores the complex world of international relations in ancient Greece and the eastern Mediterranean.
The book examines the techniques and practices used by powerful states, including royal marriages, city summits, and envoys, to navigate the intricate web of alliances and rivalries that defined this period.
Through a detailed analysis of specific diplomatic efforts, such as the Syrian Wars and the diplomacy of Rome and Carthage, Grainger sheds light on the strategies and tactics employed by these great powers in their pursuit of influence and power.
