El encuentro de Alejandro Magno con las Amazonas y sus fuentes

Abstract

The episode of the meeting of Alexander the Great with the Amazones appears in almost all the sources of the Macedonian emperor, even in the authors who do not believe in the anecdote. This work reviews the treatment of the episode in the sources of the life of Alexander. Among them we will distinguish those who do not provide credibility (Plutarch, Arrian and Strabo) from the so-called Vulgata of Alexander from Clitarch, used by the Greek historian Diodore of Sicily and the Latin writers Curtius Rufus and Justin. The episode also appears in the Cristian historian Paulus Orosius, as well as in Pseudo-Callisthenes´ Alexander Romance and in its two translations into latin by Iulius Valerius and the archpriest Leo of Naples, the latter in the Middle Ages.

El episodio del encuentro de Alejandro Magno con las Amazonas aparece en casi todas las fuentes del emperador macedonio, incluso en los autores que no le dan credibilidad. Este trabajo repasa el tratamiento del episodio en las mencionadas fuentes, entre las cuales no le dan credibilidad Plutarco, Arriano y Estrabón, frente a la llamada Vulgata de Alejandro procedente de Clitarco, que incluye el griego Diodoro de Sicilia y los latinos Curcio y Justino. También aparece el episodio en época posterior en el historiador cristiano Paulo Orosio, así como en la Novela de Alejandro del Pseudo-Calístenes y sus dos traducciones al latín de Julio Valerio y del arcipreste León de Nápoles, ya en la Edad Media
