  Though Alexander the Great lived more than 17 centuries before the onset of Iberian expansion into Muslim Africa and Asia, he loomed large in the literature of late medieval and early modern Portugal and Spain. This title shows that the story of Alexander sowed the seeds of Iberian empire and foreshadowed the decline of Spanish influence.
