Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: English summary: Alexander the Great was a commonly used figure for ancient philosophers and rhetoricians commenting on power and the risks and responsibilities of authority. These texts in Latin and Greek, critically edited and translated into French, are collected here for the first time, and contribute to the study of political philosophy in Antiquity. French description: Alexandre (356-323 avant J.-C.) fascine. Son regne fulgurant, ses immenses conquetes ont servi de reference pour une reflexion sur le bon usage du pouvoir: comment faire le bien des sujets ? comment eviter les derives de l'autoritarisme et de la corruption ? comment echapper au risque de perdre son ame ? Telles sont les questions que posent Seneque le Pere (54-39 avant J.-C.), Dion Chrysostome (30-116), Lucien (120-180), ainsi que de multiples declamateurs, ecrivant en grec et en latin a l'epoque de l'Empire romain. Leurs discours et leurs dialogues sur Alexandre le Grand n'avaient jamais ete reunis et certains n'avaient jamais ete traduits en francais. A la fois droles et profonds, ils sont riches d'implications politiques.
