THANK YOU!
I have been reading through your letter to Herodotus a little every day. "Shining a new light" may seem trite, but it applies to your brilliant and beautiful work (I looked at that letter very closely last year, but you brought out many different and new ways of looking at it).
Just as a point of discussion: I was initially a bit surprised by your preservation of cases in the transliterations used in your translation -- certainly not something I have ever seen before -- but now I think it serves as a linguistic bridge to draw a potential student closer to the original!

I really appreciate that. I am really glad to hear that you, in particular Bryan have found it to be a faithful reflection, and are appreciating the choices in delivery and presentation. Anything I've really drawn attention to are points that I myself once had doubts, or about which I had some kind of partial curiosity, so I do hope my approach reinforces helpful paths for study (and keeps it fun!)
