''The Anabasis of Alexander'' ((ラテン語:Anabasis Alexandri); , ''Alexándrou Anábasis''), also known as the ''History'', ''Campaigns'', or (''ラテン語:De Expeditione Alexandri'', ''De Exp. Alex.''; , ''Historíai Anabáseōs Alexandron''), was a history of the campaigns or expeditions ("anabasis") into the Persian Empire by Alexander the Great. It was composed centuries after the fact by the historian Arrian. This work consists of seven books and was Arrian's most important work.〔C ANTHON - (''A Manual of Greek Literature'' ), Harper and Brothers (1853) (2015-04-03 )〕 It is one of the few surviving complete accounts of the Macedonian conqueror's expedition. It is primarily a military history and has little to say about Alexander's personal life, his role in Greek politics or the reasons why the campaign against Persia was launched in the first place. Arrian was able to use sources which are now lost, such as the contemporary works by Callisthenes (the nephew of Alexander's tutor Aristotle), Onesicritus, Nearchus, and Aristobulus, and the slightly later work of Cleitarchus. Most important of all, Arrian had the biography of Alexander by Ptolemy, one of Alexander's leading generals and possibly his half-brother. ==Details== The work was written in the second century AD (ref.- p.xiii), and pertains to the life of Alexander III (ref. - p.xi), who died in 323 BC (ref. - p. 389), of which Arrian's account of the life of him is the best extant,〔Harvard University Press comment on (Anabasis of Alexander, Volume I - Translated by P. A. Brunt ) (2015-04-03 )〕 in that it is the most complete and reliable (E. Borza).〔(E. Borza, Introduction to Alexander the Great by Ulrich Wilcken (New York 1967) ) Southwestern University (2015-04-03 )〕 Written in Attic Greek, it is addressed to the Philhellene elite (Carlsen 2014).〔J Carlsen in - (Roman rule in Greek and Latin Writing: Double Vision (p.217) ) BRILL, 4 Jul 2014 (edited by JM Madsen - associate professor in Greek and Roman history, Institute of History and Civilization, University of Southern Denmark, RD Rees) ISBN 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Anabasis of Alexander」の詳細全文を読む
