About the book
A biography of Pyrrhus, the king of Epirus who fought Rome in the third century BC. It is part of Jacob Abbott's Makers of History series for general readers.
From the text
“In respect to the heroes of ancient history, who lived in times antecedent to the period when the regular records of authentic history commence, no reliance can be placed upon the actual verity of the accounts which have come down to us of their lives and actions.”

The period of Pyrrhus's career was immediately subsequent to that of Alexander the Great, the birth of Pyrrhus having taken place about four years after the death of Alexander.
피로스의 생애는 알렉산더 대왕의 생애 바로 다음 시기였으며, 피로스는 알렉산더 대왕이 죽은 지 약 4년 후에 태어났습니다.
At this time it happened that the relations which subsisted between the royal families of the two kingdoms were very intimate.
이때 두 왕국의 왕실 간의 관계는 매우 긴밀했습니다.
This intimacy arose from an extremely important intermarriage which had taken place between the two families in the preceding generation--namely, the marriage of Philip of Macedon with Olympias, the daughter of a king of Epirus.
이러한 친밀함은 이전 세대에 두 가문 사이에 일어난 매우 중요한 혼인, 곧 마케도니아의 필립과 에피루스 왕의 딸 올림피아스의 결혼에서 비롯되었습니다.
Philip and Olympias were the father and mother of Alexander the Great.
필립과 올림피아스는 알렉산더 대왕의 아버지와 어머니였습니다.
Of course, during the whole period of the great conqueror's history, the people of Epirus, as well as those of Macedon, felt a special interest in his career.
물론 위대한 정복자의 역사 전체 기간 동안 에피루스 사람들은 마케도니아 사람들뿐 아니라 그의 업적에 특별한 관심을 가졌습니다.
They considered him as a descendant of their own royal line, as well as of that of Macedon, and so, very naturally, appropriated to themselves some portion of the glory which he acquired.
그들은 그를 마케도니아 왕가뿐 아니라 자신들의 왕가의 후손으로 여겼으므로, 그가 얻은 영광의 일부를 자신들에게도 당연히 귀속시켰습니다.
Olympias, too, who sometimes, after her marriage with Philip, resided at Epirus, and sometimes at Macedon, maintained an intimate and close connection, both with her own and with Philip's family; and thus, through various results of her agency, as well as through the fame of Alexander's exploits, the governments of the two countries were continually commingled.
올림피아스도 필리포스와 결혼한 후 때로는 에피루스에, 때로는 마케도니아에 거주하면서 자신의 가족과 필리포스의 가족 모두와 긴밀한 관계를 유지했습니다. 따라서 그녀의 여러 가지 활동과 알렉산더 대왕의 업적으로 인해 두 나라의 통치권이 지속적으로 융합되었습니다.
It must not, however, by any means be supposed that the relations which were established through the influence of Olympias, between the courts of Epirus and of Macedon, were always of a friendly character.
그러나 올림피아스의 영향력으로 에피루스와 마케도니아 궁정 사이에 형성된 관계가 항상 우호적이었다고는 결코 생각해서는 안 됩니다.
