Sphere of Influence As my first leader I am picking Alexander the Great. Alexander the great influenced in a lot of regions. He has made an impact in western and eastern culture.

Alexander the Great went down in history as one of the greatest military leaders of Greek history, however, his death was the signal of the former Greek life he had ruled coming to an end. Ironically, while he created a legacy for himself, he left behind a “mess” after his sudden and untimely death, and with no other successors other than some of his loyal friends and former generals remaining (Austin, no. 27). The dawning of a new era for Greek life was born after numerous battles and kingdoms…

Kloss asserts that Diego Velázquez was “one of the greatest painters in a European century”. Perhaps the most famous painting by Velazquez is his Maids of Honor, Las Meninas, painted about 1656. It has the distinction of being probably the first painting in which a living King and a painter at work are seen together in a studio” (L36, 20:11). The subject is multifaceted; the painting is entitled Maids of Honor, referring to the princess’ maids who are attending to her, but are not the focus…

In June of 323 BCE, amongst the lush vegetation, Alexander of Macedon, also known as Alexander the Great, took his last breath. You may be wondering why I am mentioning this in a paper focused on Cleopatra, but this significance of this cannot be overlooked.

For 12 years, Alexander the Great, who led his first battle at 16 and became king at 20, propelled into the world and…

Alexander the Great was tutored by Aristotle as a child. Aristotle gifted Alexander with a copy of The Iliad at age 14, and the story greatly influenced Alexander later in his life. He may have taken the book so seriously because of his relationship with Aristotle, whom he valued as a father figure. The book’s influence on Alexander can be seen not only through his battle strategies, but also through how he acts in battle. In autumn of 332 BCE, Alexander takes the city of Gaza during a siege.…

I think Velazquez was trying to portray a beautiful young girl and her hardworking maids. In the picture Velazquez was trying to portray royalty at it’s finest. A king who would only settle for the best for his daughter. She is waited on hand and foot by her hardworking maids and caretakers. This painting also shows how Velazquez wanted to emphasize how fragile this young girl was. This painting seemed to scream vulnerability. This girl looks no older than eight years old and looks like she…
