Student ScholarshipPothos.org: Studying Alexander by Sikander, Halil and Nick. Ten things to keep in mind when writing that paper! Papers
"Alexander's motivational tactics deteriorated over his career and led to the loss of control over his troops and subjects directly preceding his death. Whereas he once employed altruistic and genuine motivational tactics on his men early in his command, he gradually began using more sinister strategies on his kinsmen."
"Alexander The Great: Who Did He Say He Was?" by Lynda Airriess. Student article. Poorly written. Faisal Khalid's Biography, Hamdard University, Islamabad, Pakistan. Scholarly text but no bibliography; HTML Errors in the notes. [ semi-mirror ]
"Alexander The Great: Who Did He Say He Was?" by Lynda Airriess. Student article. Poorly written.
"Persia After the Death of Alexander and Its Resistance To Hellenistic World" by Maryam Hedayati (from David's site on the Ancient World) Web Archive: "The Oracle at Siwa: Cult and Ritual" by Eric D. Moore (Tulane term paper). History of the oracle. The final section deals with Alexander's visit.

Conroy (from David's Ancient World) "Revisionism: The Historiographical Method of Peter Green" by Ed Tucker (from David's Ancient World) "The Roman Alexanders" by an unknown author (from David's Ancient World) Student projectsSlideshow report on the Divinity of Alexander by undergrad Sara Free, from William Murray's 2004 Age of Alexander course. For "Did Alexander really believe himself to be a god?" I'm not satisfied by "I'm not satisfied by "Ultimately, we just don't know." Slideshow report on the Alexander Romance by undergrads Rebekah Genung and Melissa Disckinson, from William Murray's 2004 Age of Alexander course. 1996 page by college students Jed Untereker, James Kossuth and Bill Kelsey at Williams College. Not updated since 1996. Some errors, naivete. June Chung's Alexander project. Chung drew on Ellis Knox's web biography (good, but basic), Bose's Alexander-in-business book (an odd choice) and Robinson's 1957 essay "The Extraordinary Ideas of Alexander the Great." This odd mixture produces odd results. "The Life of Alexander the Great" by G. Dekayie and J. Schaper, high-schoolers at Rich East High School, Park Forest, Illinois. High-schooler Graham Tucker, Charlotte Country Day School, Charlotte, NC. Alexander the Great History Project by three high school students (Hackney, Eifealdt and Tilsen). Now with snazzy frames format and huge amounts of text, including articles on each of Alexander's battles and a glossary. Brownie's Life of Alexander the Great. Large student site. Some, but not all, of the links go off to other sites (I hate that!). Nevertheless, some good stuff. Life of Alexander the Great by A. Cox, another from Rich East High School, Park Forest, Illinois. |
