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
1/11: translating greek
Because we don't offer upper-level Greek regularly at my school, I don't have a lot of in-depth translation opportunities. Although theoretically I could read on my own, when time and energy feel already over-claimed it's hard to make space for it. But I decided to translate a selection of Greek epitaphs over the holiday break, and it's been good to get back in the language in that way. If I keep up, I should be done right before school starts.
