The history of the Hellenistic world has long been more popular than has widely been realized. This volume seeks to contribute to that popularity. Here are fourteen new perspectives on the period from a distinguished and international group of scholars. Their varied papers are grouped around five key themes: Structure and System, King and Court, Family and Kinship, Landscape and People, Art and Image. The popularity of the Hellenistic world is reflected in the CPW series dedicated to it: D. Ogden, Polygamy, Prostitutes and Death; and, I; A. Erskine & L. Llwellyn-Jones (eds), Creating a Hellenistic World; E. Carney, King and Court in Ancient Macedonia; I. Kralli, The Hellenistic Peloponnese; A. Erskine, L. Llwellyn-Jones and S. Wallace (eds), The Hellenistic Court; T. Howe and F. Pownall (eds) Ancient Macedonians in the Greek and Roman Sources; K. Erickson (ed.), The Seleukid Empire (281-222 BC).
