曼弗瑞迪(Valerio Massimo Manfredi)
義大利的歷史學家,也是新聞記者和考古學家。他在米蘭大學教授正統考古學(Classical Archaeology),也常出現在歐洲各電視台的節目中。迄今他已出版了七本小說,其中包括極為暢銷的亞歷山大三部曲。
為了書寫三部曲,他曾駕駛吉普車,循著這位帝王遠征的路徑一路東行,親身體會兩千年前這位偉大帝王,強烈的激情與不凡的一生。路途中,他曾數次被捕、被軍隊找麻煩。而脫險之道是「解釋自己是學者,是愛好和平人士,然後請他們吃義大利麵。」有一次,為了趕到約旦的首都安曼去做一場重要演講,他只好搶了輛吉普車,徹夜未眠橫越沙漠。
曼弗瑞迪認為,創造歷史的是人的情感----對於權力、愛情、財富,以及性的渴望,探索這些情感,為的是能更加逼近可能的真相。
