In this post, and a few more to follow, I want to share a few Greek-related things that I think are worthy of wider dissemination.

The first in this little series, then, is the site Graecitas.com, run by Henry Quillen, and I want to highlight the blog in particular which I think is full of interesting, provocative, and useful pieces that are worth reading and considering. I don’t agree with all of Henry’s opinions, but I do think they are often on-point. Let me highlight a few pieces worth your time.

Two standards of Graecitas, in which Henry eviscerates us for notions of Attic vs Koine vs High Koine.

“Please” and Polite requests, in which Henry really does some stellar work in talking about attested Greek usage for politeness strategies.

The Reading list, which will take you several years and is probably overly idealistic, but is nonetheless now informing some of my own personal reading programming.

And the several recent posts on prosody, cola and commata, and the formatting of Greek texts.
