The Age of Alexander the Great

Alexander the Great was arguably one of the most important historical figures in Western History. He created one of the largest empires known and contributed to the spread of ancient Greek culture to areas far beyond the Classical Greek World, including today’s Iran, India and Pakistan, Egypt, Syria, Turkey and the Balkans. His legacy went down in history as one of the most influential examples of masculinity and male virtue, including Hebrew, Arab and Medieval literature, as well as contemporary film and music.
