Los autores de la Segunda Sofística mostraron su propia perspectiva sobre las imágenes de Alejandro, el tratamiento de las fuentes y la intención de escribir sobre él. Este artículo pretende explorar la respuesta retórica de Luciano a las imágenes historiográficas sobre Alejandro de su tiempo. Así, proponemos que, ridiculizando las imágenes de la literatura de la Segunda Sofística, particularmente la propuesta por la Anábasis de Arriano, Luciano no pretende mofarse del Alejandro histórico sino de su recepción y del artificio con que se le trataba en su época. 22018-01-0120182018-01-01Articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://ddd.uab.cat/record/200365https://dx.doi.org/urn:doi:10.5565/rev/karanos.4reponame:Dipòsit Digital de Documents de la UABinstname:Universitat Autònoma de BarcelonaInglésengopen accesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Aquest document està subjecte a una llicència d'ús Creative Commons.

description Alexander was the most prominent Argead and one of the major figures in Second Sophistic literature. The Second Sophistic authors had their own respective images of Alexander, treatment of their sources, and intention to write about him. This paper aims at exploring Lucian's ironic response to the historiographical Alexander images in his time. It will be argued that by ridiculing the current Alexander images in Second Sophistic literature, particularly as provided by Arrian's Anabasis, Lucian did not mean to make fun of the historical Alexander but of his reception and the bias and artifice involved.
