Aristotle was a Greek philosopher and taught Alexander to greatly respect the Greek way of life.  Alexander spoke Greek. He knew Greek history. He believed in Greek gods. When he was a boy, Alexander dreamed of teaching everyone, everywhere about Greek culture he loved.]]> 2017-04-20 16:41:29 UTC https://padlet.com/msmith191/Alexander/wish/167321181 msmith191 https://padlet.com/msmith191/Alexander/wish/167321554 Alexander consulted with his Council of Corinth on the course of action to be taken against Thebes.  The Council approved the punishment of Thebes, partly out of jealousy and of spite. The city of Thebes was then sacked and burnt by the Macedonians in a brutal manner.  The survivors were sold into slavery and the land was given to other Greeks.
