Transcription: Young Alexander's education was a task taken on in Italy by Leonidas, who was an ardent supporter of strict disciplinary training and fragility. His assistant was Lysimachus, who later became Alexander's companion during his expedition in Asia. Alexander obtained his insight on special issues from important tutors such as Philiscus, Menacmus and the greatest of all philosophers, Aristotle. Aristotle was the teacher who shaped the and the personality of young Alexander to a great extent in the three years they spent together, 342 to 339 BC.
