By the Roman era, he earned the prestigious surname "Great," and the Alexander Romance spread his legendary biography across medieval Europe and the Middle East. Beyond his adventurous pursuits, seeking the secret of immortality and engaging in profound discussions with naked sages in India, Alexander became a model of military excellence and a religious prophet, introducing Christianity during the Crusades and Islam through the Qur'an and beyond to the regions he conquered. This groundbreaking and captivating volume delves into these diverse aspects of Alexander's reception across various cultures worldwide, spanning from antiquity to the present day, and his significant contributions to gay activism.
