    Scholars have debated the identity of some of these plants.

  12. I bought this book several years ago. "The Odyssey" got me in the mood to start reading it. I'm mostly interested in tuning, scales, and meter, but I'm glad I read the chapters on instruments, because they also give some insight into tuning and scales. Like I had no idea the term 'diesis' used in temperament discussion today derived from aulos playing technique. #musicTheory #earlyMusic #musicology #history #ancientGreece #ancientRome #odyssey #movies #theOdyssey

  13. OUCH! The Translator of #TheOdyssey Just Slammed #ChristopherNolanโ€™s Movie

    โ€œI would be ashamed to have written any part of this script,โ€ wrote #EmilyWilson, the first woman to translate The Odyssey into English.

    Excerpt: "Throughout her piece, the scholar notes that no adaptation should necessarily follow an original exactly. (In fact, she praises some radically reinterpretations of The Odyssey, including #MargaretAtwood's #Penelopiad, #MadelineMiller's #Circe, and other literary classics that riff off the text, including those of #Euripides, #JohnMilton, and #JamesJoyce.)"
