Coinage, Finances, and Policy, Memoirs, American Philosophical Society (vol. 261)
Paperback
Publication Date: 01/01/2007
This English translation of Le Rider's study of the coinage and financial policy of Alexander the Great brings the magisterial scholarship of one of the world's greatest living numismatists before an Anglophone public. For more than 40 years Le Rider has published fundamental studies on the coinages of the ancient Middle East and eastern Mediterranean world, particularly from the time of Philip II (Alexander's father), and Alexander himself. Throughout his career Le Rider has demonstrated a rare ability to combine the meticulous analysis of coins with interpretations that convey the historical significance of the finds. This study draws the reader from detailed analysis and scholarly controversy into a compelling evocation of a pragmatic world conqueror. Illus.
