Beyond Alexandria: Literature and Empire in the Seleucid World
Visscher, Marijn S. (Independent scholar of Greek literature, Independent scholar of Greek literature)
Beyond Alexandria argues for the existence of a distinctive Seleucid literature, with its own preferred genres and thematic concerns. It proposes new readings of these authors and argues that they can be understood only in the wider political context, especially in relation to the Ptolemies as the Seleucids' main rivals.
