FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - FLAWLESS COPY BRAND NEW PRISTINE NEVER OPENED - 196 pages; 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 inches -- This edition one of the BCP Classics Companion Series provides a translation and detailed commentary of the Greek and Macedonian narrative of Diodorus Book XVI. An outstanding general statesman and diplomat Philip II inherited a kingdom near collapse and transformed it into the greatest power in the Mediterranean world. But for all its significance his reign is badly served by the surviving writers of Greek literature. The loss of the major contemporary historians has left us dependent for our knowledge on the speeches of the Attic orators especially the hostile Demosthenes and on the 16th Book of Diodorus Siculus who though he lived some 300 years later has bequeathed the only detailed account of Philip's reign in Macedonia and the Greek mainland. -- Preface Introduction 1 The Life and Works of Diodorus 2 Diodorus' Purpose of Writing 3 Diodorus' Chronological Scheme 4 The Sources of Diodorus in the Sixteenth Book 5 Diodorus' Portrait of Philip 6 Inaccuracies in Diodorus 16 Book Sixteen: Greek and Macedonian Narrative Commentary on the Text Appendix A: Philip II and the Transformation of Macedonia Appendix B: The Death of Philip Bibliography -- with a bonus offer-- .
