Download or read book The Campaigns of Alexander written by Arrian and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2003-07-31 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although written over four hundred years after Alexander's death, Arrian's account of the man and his achievements is the most reliable we have. Arrian's own experience as a military commander gave him unique insights into the life of the world's greatest conqueror. He tells of Alexander's violent suppression of the Theban rebellion, his defeat of Persia and campaigns through Egypt and Babylon - establishing new cities and destroying others in his path. While Alexander emerges as a charismatic leader, Arrian succeeds brilliantly in creating an objective portrait of a man of boundless ambition, who was exposed to the temptations of power.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Arrian's History of Alexander's Expedition, Vol. 2 of 2: Translated From the Greek; With Notes Historical, Geographical, and Critical At Curtius tells us, lib. Viii. Cap. 10, 12, that the inhabitants affirmed Bacchus to be the founder of their city; and he indeed built it at the foot of mount Meros: from the name of which aog, femur. A thigh, ' the Grecians feigned, that Bacchus was shut up in the thigh of Jupiter, because he was brought up on this mountain. - l love an author dearly who goes thoroughs stitch with his work, and does not stumble at straws. Arrian has touched this matter tenderly; and when he comes to confute it afterwards, chooses rather to do it in another's words than his own but Curtius tells us, point-blank, it is every tittle true. To prove the truth thereof, we need only ask, whether this Bacc was an Eastern or Western deity I he was an Indian god, how came he by his name? Dionysus and Bacchus are Greek names, and could never belong originally to a god of that country. If he was a Greek deity, how came he into India? No Gmian having ever travelled so far, before Alexander's time. Besides, how came he to be so well known there, and to conquest India alone, and never to be so much as heard of in all the countries through which he must have marched with his army, from Greece.

Arrian's History of Alexander's expedition Arrian TO THE KING. Sir, True history, like a faithful mirror, gives princes, as well as private men, an exact representation of the transactions of past ages; but if partiality infatuates the historian, or prejudice overbalances his judgment, his images appear monstrous and unnatural, and we lose the only benefit we hoped to reap from his labours. The story I now presume to lay at your Majesty's feet, is no less than the fall of the vast Persian empire, and the establishment of the Grecian upon its ruins. No period of time was ever more famous: no general ever pushed his conquests so far in so short a time, nor over-run so many countries with so small a force. None had a more numerous race of writers, to recommend his acts to posterity; but the greatest part of their compositions was either panegyric or satire; for none durst write the truth concerning him while he lived, and few seem to have had an inclination to it after his death. These, and the like considerations, moved our author to undertake this History, wherein he has drawn a more natural and lively portraiture of him than any of the rest, and painted his vices, as well as his virtues, in their proper colours. This, added to his judiciousness and impartiality, has gained him so high an esteem in the world, that the greatest princes, in different ages, have deigned him their protection. Hadrian and Antonine, the emperor Sigismond, Alphonsus king of Aragon, and Cosmus the late duke of Tuscany, are instances of this. They all approved and patronized his works; and I flatter thyself, that if the present I now offer foil of your Majesty's acceptance, it must be on account of the unworthiness of him who offers it
