Description

Explore the remarkable rise of one of Alexander the Great's most successful commanders. In Seleukos Nikator (Routledge Revivals): Constructing a Hellenistic Kingdom, you follow the forty-year journey of a man who started as a landless refugee and transformed into a powerful successor king. This historical biography uses both archaeological and historical sources to map out how Seleukos built a massive empire. His territory eventually stretched from India all the way to Greece, establishing a state that remained a major power for the next two centuries. Originally published in 1990, this Routledge Revival edition brings a neglected figure of ancient history back to light. It provides a detailed look at the stages of his life as he added province to province and kingdom to kingdom. This book is an essential read for students and enthusiasts of ancient Greece and the Hellenistic period who want to understand the formation of the successor kingdoms.
