I know I've often misunderstood people's meaning online. It does remind us of the difficulties of working with texts written thousands of years ago in a fancy form of a dead language. And I agree its not fair to criticize ancient historians' morals for working more like modern popular writers than modern academic historians.

I have not checked this forum frequently since 2013, but I hope that these old posts have some value. I now have a blog on books, swords, and the curious things humans do with them.
