The last of the Medo-Persian kings, Darius III., was a brave though unfortunate monarch. Alexander, born at Pella, in 356 B. c., was then not quite 22 years of age. He was an atrocious barbarian, although Aristotle was his tutor, Socrates and Plato had humanized the Greeks, and Demosthenes had but lately delivered his Philippics and Olynthiacs.
