Question of Morality?

Post by eumenes »

This is not an essay request for "a lazy" student, but a seriose question of the motives of Alexander's mother and if she had a role in the death of king philip? just curios. p.s is there a good chat room for this site? :)

Two words or phrases to describe Olympia's motivation: love of Alexander and his future, and her own personal mortification and humiliation at the hands of Philip.
