Utilising a micro-structural perspective this study suggests explanations for the surprising popularity of Don Quijote in China. ![]() Elizabeth Carney, "Philip II and Alexander the Great: Father and Son, Lives and Afterlives" English | ISBN: 0199738157 | 2010 | 368 pages | PDF | 3 MB The careers of Philip II and his son Alexander the Great (III) were interlocked in innumerable ways: Philip II centralized ancient Macedonia, created an army of unprecedented skill and flexibility, came to dominate the Greek peninsula, and planned the invasion of the Persian Empire with a combined Graeco-Macedonian force, but it was Alexander who actually led the invading forces, defeated the great Persian Empire, took his army to the borders of modern India, and created a monarchy and empire that, despite its fragmentation, shaped the political, cultural, and religious world of the Hellenistic era. Alexander drove the engine his father had built, but had he not done so, Philip's achievements might have proved as ephemeral as had those of so many earlier Macedonian rulers.
