We have a bevy of introspective blog links this week.
Liz Gloyn ponders the importance of bibliometrics for Classicists.
Llewelyn Morgan examines the “us vs. them” mentality prevalent in our society and what the ancient Greeks can show us.
Neville Morley grapples with the concept of the Classicist as the “Lone Scholar.”
Finally, the NYT has a write-up on that oldie-but-goody, Nuntii Latini, the Finnish news program spoken in Latin.
Thursday Resource: Ephemeris
Ephemeris is a website that posts modern news stories in Latin. It’s a nice source for sight reading passages and for expanding vocabulary in Latin.
