Soldados, armas y batallas en los grafitos históricos /
:
This edited volume deals with the presence and representation of the military in historical graffiti and also those military enclaves that tell us their history through their graffiti. The backbone of this publication is the study of various sets of historical military-themed graffiti (representations of battles, armaments, infrastructure, warriors and soldiers, slogans or proclamations, etc.), all of them drawings and/or messages engraved in spaces linked to defence culture (the walls of castles, barracks, sentry boxes, prisons or bunkers, among others). The compendium of collected chapters presents us with a holistic and multi-temporal vision from the ancient world to contemporary times; from Pompeii to America, and with a particular focus on the Iberian Peninsula.

Alexander histories and Iranian reflections : remnants of propaganda and resistance /
:
Alexander the Great's military campaign to conquer the Achaemenid empire included a propaganda campaign to convince the Iranians his kingship was compatible with their religious and cultural norms. This campaign proved so successful that the overt display of Alexander's Iranian and Zoroastrian preferences alienated some of his Greek and Macedonian allies. Parivash Jamzadeh shows how this original propaganda material displayed multiple layers of Iranian influences. Additionally she demonstrates that the studied sources do not always offer an accurate account of the contemporary Iranian customs, and occasionally included historical inaccuracies. One of the most interesting finds in this study is the confusion of historical sources that arose between the opponents Darius III and Alexander. Jamzadeh argues that the Iranian propaganda regarding Alexander the Great has contributed to this confusion.
