What reading level is The Campaigns of Alexander (Classics) book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
B. Bosworth, ‘Arrian’s Literary Development’, Classical Quarterly, 1972, 163–85. He argues that Arrian wrote The Campaigns of Alexander before beginning his civil and military career, perhaps soon after 115 A.D. 1. Philip A. Stadter (Greek, Roman and Byzantine Studies 8, 1967, 155ff) has shown that Xenophon was not merely a nickname, but part of the historian’s name. 2. Arrian was suffect consul in 129 or 130 A.D., and in his day it was usual for a man to hold the consulship at about the age o...f 42; see JRS 55 (1965), p. 142 n. 30. 3. We do not know why Arrian chose to study under Epictetus rather than, as we should have expected, at Athens. In an important article on Arrian’s governorship in the English Historical Review 1896 (reprinted in his Essays, ed. F. Haverfield, Oxford, 1906), Professor H. F. Pelham has suggested that Arrian was probably influenced by the traditions of his mother’s family, the ‘gens’ Arria, famous in the history of Roman Stoicism. He conjectures that the cognomen Arrianus indicates the family of the historian’s mother, as cognomina often did in the first and second centuries A.D. 4.
