The Persian Boy is a 1972 historical novel written by Mary Renault and narrated by Bagoas, a young Persian from an aristocratic family who is captured by his father's enemies, castrated, and sold as a slave to king Darius III, who makes him his favourite. Eventually he becomes the lover and most faithful servant of Alexander the Great, who overthrew Darius and captured the Persian Empire. Bagoas' narration provides both a Persian view of the conquest and an intimate look at the personality of the conqueror. In Renault's view, Alexander's love for Bagoas influenced his desire to unite the Greek and Persian peoples. Renault also posits the notion that Alexander's relentless drive to conquer the world stemmed in part from his troubled relationship with his domineering mother, and his desire t

  • Il ragazzo persiano (titolo originale The Persian Boy) è un romanzo storico scritto da Mary Renault, pubblicato nel 1972. Seconda parte di una trilogia incentrata sulla vita di Alessandro Magno, la storia è narrata da Bagoa, il cui punto di vista fornisce sia la prospettiva persiana della conquista dell'Impero sia uno sguardo intimo alla personalità del conquistatore macedone. Per l'autrice, l'amore di Alessandro per Bagoa influenza il suo desiderio di unire i Greci e i Persiani. Ciò che lo domina, l'incessante smania di grandezza, la volontà estendere il proprio dominio sulla terra, sarebbe in parte derivato dal desiderio di Alessandro di allontanarsi dalla madre, una figura dominante, con cui il rapporto è problematico, secondo Renault.
