I want to know the answer to the following question:
How did 19th century scholars view the Hellenistic period?
All the background I'm provided with is that "The focus on the Hellenistic period over the course of the 19th century by scholars and historians has led to an issue common to the study of historical periods; historians see the period of focus as a mirror of the period in which they are living.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
