I’m just now reading an essay in New York Review of Books online that incorporates both The Landmark Herodotus: The Histories edited by Robert B. Strassler, translated from the Greek by Andrea L. Purvis, with an introduction by Rosalind Thomas Pantheon, 953 pp., $45.00 and Commentary on Herodotus Books I–IV by David Asheri, Alan Lloyd, and Aldo Corcella, edited by Oswyn Murray and Alfonso Moreno, with a contribution by Maria Brosius.

Many thanks.

Around here, which is Downtown New York, a lot of folks think the Igster is a jerk — I mean, musicians, artists, writers, and such, are infantilistically competitive. If I’m a duck, this water rolls off me.

In my main life I read Rogueclassicism.

I want to know which new translation Iggy Pop thinks is killer.

Got any candidates?
