Re: Very worrying...

Hi, I was just thinking the same thing a couple of days ago. Alexander's life packed a massive punch to put it very lightly. I was thinking that you could honestly make a decent film, Ridley Scott style (3-4-hrs) about any of Alexander's great battles and still have plently to talk about. So it is r...

Re: David Bowie eyes

Hi Karl, it is always instructive and intersting to read your comments! Well, since the site went down for that week I haven't been able to catch up on what was going on. I was beginning to think that in the Canary Islands we had lost the privilige of reading from this site. Anyway to resume dialogu...

Cup of Honour

Hi, recently I recently read about the condition of Alexander in his last days in Babylon. The article stated that shortly before his death he had drunk a "cup of honour". According to the article this famous cup could contain "a lot of wine"(several litres), which Alex drank off...

Re: Spare Alexander from Freud

Hi Karen, I too would not be too delighted to have Freud's breakdown of Alex's psyche (apart from it taking about a hundred years on the couch anyway). Alex's youth, which counts for two thirds of his life are practically unaccounted for in comparison to the last ten years and this is a real shame f...

Re: New section?

Hi Nick, How are you? I was very pleased to read your suggestion that maybe a part of this site could supply more information. I don't believe that Alexander was simply a product of his fate- his nature was unique because he rose above it at every step of the way and for that reason I think further ...

Personality test.

Hi everybody, I am curious about most aspects of Alexander's life- but most especially his personality. I have got up to the battle of Guagmela in "The Nature Of Alexandr+¬" by Renault and still haven't been enlightened as to the real mechanisms at work. I do agree though with her idea tha...

Sherlock Holmes.

Hi everybody, I was reading the comments on the forum regarding the books by Manfredi "Alexandros"- the general impression would seem to be abysmal- but the reasons didn't, to me, come clear. Some people criticised it strongly without having read it- which I think is the same as judging a ...
