Consider the following statement: A true hero is not measured by the size of his strength, but by the strength of his heart. Referring to the values of Hellenistic arête and Roman virtù, what personal characteristics and deeds made Alexander III and Gaius Julius Caesar “great”, perhaps even “divine”, in the eyes of their contemporaries? Be clear about what constituted arête and virtù, and how each of those men understood and sought to embody heroism and virtue. Include the roles that those values played in their lives and in Hellenistic and Roman society and politics generally.
