        The Story of the Good King Alexander the Great

        Ein Ritterroman über Alexander den Großen

        by Angelica Rieger

        No figure in ancient history gave rise to so many mythical fantasies as Alexander the Great (356-323 BC). Soon after his mysterious death, legends about his adventurous life started to flourish with a rich production of codexes, the most valuable of which were beautifully illustrated by miniatures. The sumptuous manuscript that is covered in this volume contains a version of the story in prose of ‘the Good King Alexander’ – the ‘Ystoire du Bon Roi Alexandre’ in ancient French. It was acquired by the Hamilton Collection in 1882 and is currently kept in the Kupferstichkabinett of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin Preussischer Kulturbesitz, under the marking 78 C 1.
