Slide 1 - Alexander the Great Hellenism and the Clash of Cultures
Slide 2 - Collapse of Classical Greece While Sparta and Athens bickered in the fifth and fourth centuries B.C.E., Macedonia’s power grew. 338 B.C.E., Philip II (382-336 B.C.E.), King of Macedonia, marches south and devastates the Athenian army. Proceeds to conquer all other Greek city states (except Sparta) and unifies Greek-speaking people for first time in their history. Plans an invasion of Persia, but is assassinated.

Slide 9 - Spread of Greek Culture Hellenism (from Ἕλλην [Héllēn]: “imitating Greek culture”), Greek culture, is spread across Alexander’s empire and its remnants. Greek language, art, science spreads from Egypt to Palestine to Persia to India. Greeks also influenced by eastern cultures: clash of cultures in some cases.
Slide 10 - Greek Language Trade increased throughout the empire and Greek became the language of trade. People in cities across region either speak Greek only or Greek and their native language. Significance of having a common language in a polyglot society?
Slide 11 - Greek-inspired Art Greek sculptors traveled all over the Hellenistic world for patrons. Cities in Seleucid Persia began to look like Athens or Corinth. Gymnasiums, baths, theaters, temples. Movement away from idealism to emotionalism and realism. Statues of old women, drunks, and children.

Slide 17 - Science and Philosophy Science begins to separate from philosophy during Hellenistic period. Archimedes of Syracuse (287-212 B.C.E.) becomes prominent mathematician and inventor. Archimedean screw, specific gravity, levers, pulleys. Epicurus (341-270 B.C.E.) and Zeno (335-263 B.C.E.)
