^^^^^^^^^^^
I think you are confusing Renault's "The King Must Die" [Theseus finds a sword
under a stone] with T. H. White's "The Once and Future King" [Arthur finds a 
sword
IN a stone].

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Steve ISN'T comparing Joyce to Mary Renault, but to T. H. White, author of
*The Once and Future King*.

His name is not EuripEdes, it is EuripIdes.  I hope that this is a
typographical error; as a misspelling, it would be insulting.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Yes, I jumped too quick here, having just perused the Renault book in my 
collection the day before.  Now I have two books to read.  The *Once and 
Future King* must be some book to eclipse Joyce though.

And yes, I know better than ED for Euripides, but not well enough.  Don't be 
insulted.
