This volume presents five articles relating to military studies in the context of Macedonia of the Antigonids. Combining literary studies and archaeological research, the author proposes several new concepts on Hellenistic Macedonian military studies. Originally conceived as separate journal articles supporting a more general publication on the Macedonian army of Alexander the Great, it became clear it would be more useful and valuable to publish the articles together in one volume as they closely reference each other. Articles consider the Macedonian phalanx, Antigonid Redcoats, heavy infantry and defensive weaponry under the following headings: I. La nature de la phalange macedonienne ou quand la science recule; II. Antigonid Redcoats. L’infanterie d’elite de l’armee du royaume de Macedoine a l’epoque hellenistique. Histoire et iconographie; III. ‘Infanterie lourde’ : une notion entre armement et ordonnance tactique; IV. Remarques philologiques et historiques sur l’ambivalence de termes relatifs aux institutions militaires macedoniennes chez les historiens de l’Antiquite; V. Deux nouvelles armes defensives de l’epoque hellenistique. French Description: Ces cinq etudes militaires resultent essentiellement de developpements presentes dans le manuscrit doctoral de l’auteur, L’Armee du royaume de Macedoine a l’epoque hellenistique (323-148 av. J.-C.). Les troupes nationales , presente en Sorbonne le 11 janvier 2007. L’idee premiere avait ete de les publier sous forme d’articles. Mais ce projet se heurtait a une difficulte. Ces textes se faisant echo, il s’avererait difficile d’attendre la diffusion du premier d’entre eux pour presenter les suivants tout en faisant exactement reference a un voire a plusieurs textes en cours de publication. Aussi apparut-il qu’il valait mieux les reunir en un recueil dont la coherence serait assuree par un theme commun : l’histoire et l’archeologie militaire de l’epoque hellenistique, tout particulierement dans le cadre de la Macedoine des Antigonides.
