Alexander's Lovers

Who were Alexander the Great’s lovers? Meet Roxane, the Little Star, Stateira II and Parysatis, Persian princesses and daughters of Great Kings, Bagoas, a resourceful eunuch, and – most famous of all - Hephaestion, the Macedonian general who stuck by Alexander from childhood to death, through thick and thin, yet whose relationship with the conqueror is still covered in mystery. In Alexander’s Lovers Malcolm and Francis enter the heart of Alexander’s life. They look at the famous and obscure of those who caught the king’s eye, tackle the politics, and, along the way, explore the really big issues: beards, biscuits, and debatable parental decisions made in the service of love!Spearpoint SocialsFacebookInstagram: @spearpointATGThreads: @SpearpointATGBluesky: @spearpoint.bsky.socialWebsite: https://spearpointatg.com/MalcolmInstagram: @thesecondachillesFacebook: @alexander.of.macedonFrancesInstagram: @futuristichistorianEmail: spearpointatg@gmail.comIntro + Outro MusicEpic by Hot_Dope (pixabay.com)Audio EngineerRenee LeBoeuf, Green Frog Productions, LLC, Seattle WA Hosted on Acast.
