Το Έπος του '40 μέσα από πίνακες ζωγραφικής

 

Γυναίκες Ηπειρώτισσες 

Διαταγή εξετελέσθη...

Στη μάχη

Πορεία στη χιονοθύελλα

Στην χιονισμένη Αλβανία

Μέχρις εσχάτων

Υπέρ πάντων Αγών

Είσοδος του ελληνικού στρατού στην Κορυτσά

Κουβαλώντας βλήματα στα αδιάβατα...

Προέλασις 

Με τέτοιο λαμπρό στρατό

ΑΕΡΑΑΑ!!

Χαιρετισμός προς το μέτωπο

Πυροβολικό στο ποτάμι

Modern Historians about Macedonia – Katja Mueller

 

Quote:

If the Ptolemies did not found cities in Egypt the way the Seleukids did in Asia and Asia Minor, they did settle tens of thousands of Greco-Macedonians and other settlers.

Quote:

Mainly it was Greek Macedonians who were settled.

Quote:

An important feature of Ptolemaic history and historiography has been the dichotomy  between Greek and Egyptian cultures.

Modern scholarship has intimately linked Hellenistic colonization with the Greek side, with Greek culture. We might then expect new settlements to reflect this greekness. The city of Alexandria provides a good example. It was a settlement with a Greek-Macedonian origin.

Its founder, Alexander the Great, was a Greek-speaking Macedonian, its second founder Ptolemy I, a Greek Macedonian general; its architects Deinokrates and Sostratos of Knidos were both Greeks.

The city’s grid plan was Greek Hippodamian. Ptolemaic colonization which followed might thus be viewed as a Greek phenomenon owning its origin and structure to Greek town planning.

Modern Historians about Macedonia – Peter Tsouras

 

Quote:

Alexander III was born on 20 July 356 B.C as heir of the Argead dynasty of the kingdom of Macedonia in northeastern Greece. His father, Philip II, was probably the most remarkable Greek military and political figure between Pericles and Alexander himself.

Alexander: Invincible King of Macedonia by Peter G. Tsouras, page 3

Quote:

Philip transformed Macedonia from a minor and constantly beleaguered state into the mistress of Hellas and created the magnificent weapon of war – the Macedonian army.

Quote:

The macedonians were Greek in language and blood but did not share the city-state culture of the southern greeks who were quick to lump their cruder kinsmen with barbarians.

Quote:

Alexander’s royal ancestors hosted the artistic genious of Greece.

Quote:

Younger than he,her beauty was already apparent and intoxicating. She was not the typical Greek woman whose glory was never to be spoken of. Red-haired and fiery by nature, she was a woman for whom power was an all-consuming pursuit
