I'm sure you'll get a response from others on this forum as to online resources. In the meantime, as I've found myself quoting from Volume III of Plutarch's Moralia a couple of times these last few days, I decided to transcribe the quotes (18) of Antigonus from Sayings of Kings and Commanders and will email them to you. Hopefully you don't have all unsolicted email blocked. :-)Best regards,Linda Ann

The internet is not a substitute for the library. I am afraid this sounds a bit unfriendly, but you will nowhere find the amount of information and the analysis you can find in the books by Billow (Antigonos the One-eyed, 1990) and Pierre Briant (Antigone le Borgne, 1973).Jona

the use of books has not passed me by. i have many with references to antigonous, i do not require a biography or full run down of his career, just some extra info.

Hi, Craig.
I hope you do not let Jona Lendering's rude response put you off from asking for information on Antigonus. Sometimes when people have nothing to say they say it anyway.
