Hey, congrats. I know it must be a load off to get your thesis done and passed. :-)Can you give us a briefish abstract?Dr. Jeanne
(who's giving up on posting that damn sig line. LOL!)

Thanks. :-)I'll be around until I run out of time, then I'll probably disappear again for a while. LOL! Such is academic life.

Congrats, Maciek!I knew you had it in you. I'll never forget how you caused a lightning strike that brought down the power on our street for 12 hours!John

Ha ha that was good John I remember this. Well it was some time ago but well I still have some powers...Maciek M

It was a lot of work but really reading and writing about ancient is great pleasure.
My "thesis" (we call it work in polish was on 120 pages and it was all to prove that Alexander's aim wasn't any drunken dream or passion for treasury. There is too much evidences for it that's why I had to fill so many pages.
The main part was three middle subchapters concluded in chapter "Dream of united world". I think it is all clear what that means...One of my important points was a letter published in last century. This letter was examined by very good polish historian M. Plezia which was almost certain that letter is original. It was sent in 330 BC from Aristotele to Alexander. Two years ago it was published in Poland for the first time so I was lucky because I could used it and it was very new in here.
