[lit-ideas] Doris and Cecily: A Moral Fable

??? The Importance of Being Doris

??? DORIS. Region of Greece. 
??? SICILY, cf. CAECILIA, fem. name

Helm:

"JL expanded my comments on the Syracusan War to include the larger 
Peloponnesian War, but it was Syracuse that I found most depressing."

Don't!

After all, perhaps it did teach Athens a lesson.

I'm interested in what the Germans call "hoch klassikal", i.e. high classical, 
i.e. 480-323 B. C. So that's what's _eternal_ about Greece. It was the time 
when time stopped. How bad could the Peloponnesian War have been that it 
allowed for the 'miracle' we call Greece?

Just a thought (Actually, for Frege, who counts 'thoughts' per number of 
propositions, that's 21 thoughts!)

Cheers,

JL
