What Are You Currently Reading? 2013

I have taken a stab at Herodotus and intend to return again to him (a copy is also sitting on my Kindle).

One of my teachers told me that he grades with two things in mind: the scope of the student’s ambition and his/her success in fulfilling it. Herodotus scores well on both!

I studied a lot of Greek philosophy while at university, I am finding The Histories readable in comparison

I have studied very little Greek philosophy, but just last night I was reading a short piece about ontology which makes reference to “competitive metaphysics in the Greek style.”
