As we always do we'll talk about the man himself, and the statements made surrounding him by the talking heads, the historicity of the period armour, jewelry, weapons, language, our usual empirical scrutiny entirely based on the sources which I will provide. We do this as a way to learn while having fun. For the rest of you, namely those of you whom regardles of your own personal political preferences, left right or centre, just want to know what the evidence says without the political pandering, section 7 is for you and it will contain the most historically coherent and unbiased take on Alexander the great's sexuality on this platform. Let's go. Point 1 The Boy King I'd like to start with the fact that I already have a problem with the title of the pilot episode. ALEXANDER THE BOY KING. This title represents how king Darius refers to Alexander, twice on the show. A 20 of age you were a fully grown man everywhere in that period… extremely improbable therefore that Darius would refer to Alessandro as a “boy king” that's a modernism right there. Point 2 – The Greatest Military Mind I don't feel like I can say that professor Llewellyn-Jones' consideration is demonstrably incorrect, however defining Alexander as “the greatest military mind of all time” is specious. We know he perfected king Philip's military machiche, he was a fascinating man and incredible commander, he surely exploited the true battle potential of cavalry in conjuction with the phalanx, utilizes the“hammer and anvil” tactical structure beautifully. So the great ok but the greatest? That would mean that not only you are comparing him to a Annibale, uno Scipione, un Cesare, un Gaio Mario, un Quinto Sertorio, consul Flavius Stilicho , and that's just int he Classical period, but to every military mind in all of human history. That sounds like a sensatiolaist claim, in other words a tv statement. Take it for what it is. Defibniterly not an idiot, JT, and white supremacy is not the topic of this discussion Sara. One of the characteristics of Alexander's success was his charisma, unscrupulousness and contempt for danger. If there is one thing that the sources agree on is this. Which is why I find it curious that Joe Rogan doens't believe that Alexander fought in the front lines, that was single handedly one of the main defining factors which set Alexander aside, he was a warrior king. He lead cavalry charges in person, risked and won, his enemies died when they confronted him in combat, which is also one of the reasons why he was so inpiring to his men. I'll give you that that doesn't happen that often in the Classical period, usually commanders stay in the back. But it's not unheard of, we know it happened at least once to both Hannibal and Caesar. It was not the norm, but Alexander breaks the norm. We must make our judgments not based on what sounds reasonable to us, but based on the historical apparatus we have, to govern the opinions we form about our interpretation of the documented facts. I get that you woudln't do it, neither woudl I but we are not Alexander the Great. #metatron #alexanderthegreat #netflix |
