Description
The Hellenistic World presents fourteen new papers by an international group of contributors, exploring the pivotal age between Alexander the Great's death and Cleopatra VII's reign. This period saw significant developments in settlement patterns, non-Greek populations, royal courts, and the wider question of the Hellenistic world's political structure.
Attention is given to the revolutionary art of the time, as well as its reception in more recent times, including images of Cleopatra on film. This collection offers a fresh perspective on the Hellenistic World, shedding light on the complex and multifaceted nature of this pivotal age.
