Syriac Alexander Romance

The Syriac Alexander Romance (known in Syriac as the Tašʿītā d̄ʾAleksandrōs) is an anonymous work of Christian Syriac literature, translated into Syriac in the sixth or seventh century from the earlier Greek tradition of the Alexander Romance. A different text, the Syriac Alexander Legend, appears as an appendix in manuscripts of the Syriac Alexander Romance, but the inclusion of the Legend into manuscripts of the Romance is the work of later redactors and does not reflect an original relationship between the two.
