[QUOTE]Originally posted by Punos_Rey: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: I'm not sure Europeans valorize the Greeks to the extent that it pervades every facet of Western life. You will have to make the case but maybe. [/QB][/QUOTE]Who are you kidding?? I know how much you guys hate Afrocentrists(real or imagined) but to pretend Greece and Rome aren't considered the very LYNCHPIN upon which Western Civilization rests is hysterical. Greco-Romanism permeates the western way of life at every turn, from our modern judicial system, our philosophical concepts, much of our architecture, our speculative arts, our popular stories/myths and so on. Universities all over have departments exclusively dedicated to Greece and Rome (and such departments are typically referred to as *CLASSICS*, not Greco-Roman or Southern European studies,nor even European Classics but *the* Classics). I have yet to have ONE history/philosophy/anthropology course that didn't refer to Greece and Rome, even my courses abroad in China made mention of Greek/Roman philosophers and their importance to the foundation of the west. Seriously, don't. [/QB][/QUOTE]
