"The successors of Alexander the Great"
|
|
On June 23, Robin Waterfield, author of " Dividing the Spoils: The War for Alexander the Great’s Empire", guided the audience at the Embassy of Greece into the fascinating period of history after the death of Alexander the Great. The narration had as its center, Olympias, Alexander's mother, who became very central to events in the years immediately following her son’s death, as she tried to protect her grandson, the boy king Alexander IV, and ensure that he would one day come of age and inherit his empire. She also wanted revenge against those she assumed had killed her son. The event was sponsored by the National Hellenic Society.
