This major study by a leading expert is dedicated to the thirty
years after the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC. It deals
with the emergence of the Successor monarchies and examines the
factors which brought success and failure. Some of the central
themes are the struggle for pre-eminence after Alexander's death,
the fate of the Macedonian army of conquest, and the foundation of
Seleucus' monarchy. Bosworth also examines the statesman and
historian Hieronymus of Cardia, concentrating on his treatment of
widow burning in India and nomadism in Arabia. Another highlight is
the first full analysis of the epic struggle between Antigonus and
Eumenes (318-316), one of the most important and decisive campaigns
of the ancient world.
