Kai Cenat reportedly SKEPTICAL of an Aeolic phase in Homer
“Homer does use Aeolic forms when Ionic forms aren’t metrically possible, but he also uses archaic pre-Mycenaean forms and artificially mixed paradigms. Influence from a parallel Aeolic tradition is just more plausible.”
@CobaltGreen1138 Idk why people feel the need to comment on videos they didn’t even watch. If the title and thumbnail affected you so powerfully that you felt you needed to post about it, why didn’t you just watch the video?
Stupidest thing I’ve ever done in class: we were getting reps with a few different prepositions (LLPSI ch 9), and after a few questions with “inter” I asked “Ubi est impostor?” And they were all confused til I drew a crewmate on the board and said “inter nos”
@nonregemesse “My teacher in high school told me that primary sources were the most important, therefore I must uncritically parrot the opinions and narratives in them.”
People have conflated primary sources with the objective truth, and the work of experts with dissembling influences.
