Course Description

Examines the extraordinary life and times of Alexander III, king of Macedon between 356 and 323 BCE. Alexander conquered the greatest empire the world had yet seen and persuaded millions of people that he was a god. The course asks how much we can believe of what people said about him, how he did what he did, and whether "Great" is really the right word for him.
