Extractions: down to the Roman Empire The Hellenistic Age suffers from some of the same disabilities as Late Antiquity, i.e. it doesn't measure up to the brilliance of the Golden Age of Greece and of late Republican and early Imperial Rome. However, the Hellenistic world, although mostly not bothering with characteristic Greek experiments like democracy, is where Greece actually became a cosmopolitan culture, a sort of pre-adaptation for the Roman world. Just saying that the Bible begins with the book of Genesis , a Greek word, reflects the degree to which the older cultures of the Middle East came to express themselves in Greek. Several of the Hellenistic Kingdoms, mainly in Anatolia (Armenia, Pontus, Cappadocia, etc.), are domains of non-Greek peoples. Meanwhile, although the literature does not seem as brilliant, mathematics, science, and technology develop rapidly. Archimedes very nearly develops calculus. Eratosthenes estimates the size of the Earth with an accuracy that will not be surpassed until Modern times. Hero of Alexandria builds a kind of steam engine. This remains little more than a toy, but the same cannot be said of the immense engines, often of war, that Hellenstic technology otherwise produces. It is all inherited by the Romans, perhaps symbolicly with the killing of Archimedes at Syracuse by a Roman soldier in 212 (during the Second Punic War, 218-201). All of these tables are mainly based on E.J. Bickerman

http://www.unet.com.mk/mian/cultural.htm

Extractions: Literature. The texts of the Thessaloniki brothers Cyril and Methodius, written in the new alphabet, mark the beginning of Macedonian literature since the language they were written in was the language spoken by the Macedonian Slavs of Thessaloniki. For that reason, the beginning of literary activity among the Slavic peoples is closely linked to the beginning of Macedonian literature. The oldest Slavonic texts proving the literacy of medieval Macedonia are the Assemani Gospel, the Zograf Gospel, the Codex Marianus, the Sinai Psalter and the Sinai Euchologion, all dating from the 12th century. It has been ascertained that they were either written on Macedonian soil or contain characteristic traces of medieval Macedonian originals. All were written in Glagolitic script, proof of the continued use of this alphabet in Macedonia. Constantine the Presbyter, known in literature and in church history also as Episcope Constantine of Bregalnitsa, was one of the younger disciples of Cyril and Methodius. Constantine was the author of the collected Teaching Gospels, 51 sermons including 42 original works. He is also most likely the author of the Introduction to the Gospel, which celebrates the fact that the Slavs had obtained the Gospel in their own language. The Alphabet Prayer, an introductory text to the Teaching Gospels, likewise delights in the education of the Slavs. But the dilemma over whether these works belong to Constantine/St. Cyril or to Constantine of Bregalnitsa remains to be solved by scholars.

Extractions: MACEDONIA - HISTORY Prehistoric Macedonia, occupied continuously from early neolithic times, possessed a uniform culture in the bronze age, little influenced by Mycenae, and was invaded c.1150 BC by a northern people, of whom a western offshoot may have provoked the Dorian invasion. Hesiod first mentioned 'Makedon', the eponym of the people and the country, as a son of Zeus, a grandson of Deukalion, and so a first cousin of Aeolus, Dorus, and Xuthus; in other words he considered the 'Makedones' to be an outlying branch of the Greek-speaking tribes, with a distinctive dialect of their own, ' Macedonian He gave their habitat as 'Pieria and Olympus '. In northern Pieria an early iron age cemetery of 300 tumuli, partly excavated, has revealed the rulers there as probably Phrygians and then Illyrii until c.650 BC, when it went out of use. At that time a new dynasty, the Temenidae, ruling the Macedonians, founded their early capital at Aegae (mod. Vergina), situated above the cemetery, and thereafter gained control of the coastal plain as far as the Axius. The Persian occupation of Macedonia 512-479 BC was beneficial. Xerxes gave to Alexander I the rule over western Upper Macedonia, which was peopled by

Extractions: Philip has learned strategy at the feet of Theban Epaminodas. The army he created included a at the rear . In any case troops standing in close formation armed with weapons seven yards long must have been useless for any but defensive purposes; and, as a mater of fact, the victories of Alexander were generally gained by the lightening charge of the king at the head of his knights. We need not touch upon the shabby "Sacred War" which called Philip to enter Greece on the invitation of Thebes. It was at Chaeronea in 338 that Philip defeated a mixed Greek army in whose ranks Demosthenes was fighting as a hoplite. Philip was generous to the Greeks, and especially to Athens. Next year the darling wish of his heart was obtained, for he was elected president of a Panhellenic union destined to fulfil his great scheme of avenging the Persian invasions of Greece by a march into Asia, or at any rate by the freeing of the Greek cities of Asia Minor. In the next year he was murdered, and his brilliant son Alexander has been suspected of complicity in the plot. The grand idea of Philip's, begotten perhaps from the study of Isocrates, was certainly inspired by the examples of Cyrus and Agesilaus. Unfortunately it was far from arousing any enthusiasm in Greece. Persia itself was a long way off and money could be had from the great king without fighting for it. There was a sordid scramble for bribes among the Greek statesmen. As soon as they heard of Philips death they broke into unseemly jubilation, and voted compliments to his murderers; they hoped that things would return to their own routine, and that there would be no talk of crusades. They has reckoned without Alexander, for it is seldom that a Philip is succeeded by an Alexander.

Extractions: BRIEF HISTORY OF MACEDONIA by Gane Todorovski from the book "MACEDONIA - CULTURAL HERITAGE" THE ANCIENT PERIOD THE COMING OF THE SLAVS TO THE BALKANS CZAR SAMUEL'S KINGDOM AGES OF THRALLDOM ... LITERACY AND CULTURE THE ANCIENT PERIOD Macedonia existed as an independent state as early as the ancient period. It was a slave-owning society located on the territory known by the same name, but previously called Ematia. Ancient Macedonia had bordered with Greece in the south, Epirus in the west, Illyria in the northwest and Thrace in the east. The population of this state had consisted of various tribes like the Orestians, the Elimiotians, the Erodians and others. They were all been close to the Illyrians, the Thracians and the Greeks. In the 6th century B. C. Macedonia did not have close contacts with the Greek state and culture. As a society it was organized on a primitive basis, but at the end of the 5th century B. C. it entered a phase of its development known as "military democracy". When the processes of development entered its social structure, Macedonia became a class society that started uniting its territory divided into separate regions on the basis of political unification. Alexander I (489-454 B. C.) was the first to unite Macedonia. Archelaus (431-399 B. C.) had the task of consolidating the process of centralization by introducing monetary and military reforms while, during the reign of Philip II (359-336 B. C.), the borders of Macedonia were significantly expanded. He reorganized the military and annihilated the separatist tendencies. He defeated the Greeks at the battle of Chaeronea (338 B. C.), thus delivering a decisive blow to the anti-Macedonian coalition and raising Macedonia among the most powerful states in the Balkans.
