• Resumen

  • The Macedonian conquest of the Persian Empire has almost always been viewed from a Western perspective because of our total dependence on Greek sources for its reconstruction. The literary and ideological devices used in these accounts have largely distorted our understanding of many of the events and the fundamental significance of the campaign for its main protagonist. Only by looking at things from a different perspective, from the east, and by integrating the facts within this same context can we come closer to a better understanding of all these issues.
