Something of interest (perhaps) from the latest edition of my free newsletter:


This month's online version of Atlantic Monthly has an interesting article
on Confucius, including the suggestion that much of his writings were
actually created by Jesuits!:

Not in the latest edition, and I don't recall seeing any mention of it
here, so ... last Sunday's Washington Post had a little quiz with the
following incipit:

"Later writers often return to classical sources, reworking ancient themes,
bringing the gods up to date. For fun, match up the following mythological
figures with the modern writings or artwork based on them."

Access the quiz at (watch the wrap):

The answers are on the same page ... so don't peek!
