Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
11/8: koinē unexpectedly
My students are having trouble this afternoon downloading their Greek assignment for tomorrow from the internet. It was supposed to be our first day translating Plato, but given their difficulty in getting the text, I decided to postpone Plato until Wednesday. So this afternoon I got to prepare an assignment from the Gospel of Mark, and though I'm excited that we'll be doing Plato soon, it's nice to return--and unexpectedly at that--to the comfortable grammatical ground of the Greek New Testament.
