Alexander the Great and Propaganda explores the use of propaganda - whether literature, coinage, or iconography - in the court of Alexander the Great, as well as those of his Successors, demonstrating that it was as integral to Hellenistic courts as it was to Imperial Rome.

Alexander the Great has remained a source of fascination since antiquity. Literary tradition surrounding the Macedonian conqueror is rich, contradictory, and complex. In order to investigate what aspects of Alexander's person and reign interested ancient writers, scholar Elizabeth Baynham examines their sources and motivations. The result is a solid contribution to studies of Alexander and of Greek and Roman history.
