Thank you,StarTrekker! This was a nice surprise, and I’m pleased to see Saturnalia on the menu. The best of the season to you too.ManuelKomnenos (talk)14:23, 24 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I am posting here as I don't want to derail the ANI thread you replied to. I was attempting to include the context provided by the book that quoted the source text. If there is a better way to do that, let me know.TSventon (talk)03:04, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@TSventon Aargh, I was afraid I’d written that badly. “Not good practice” was meant to refer to GoutComplex’s use of the quote, not yours. Sorry for being ambiguous— I’ve no complaint whatever with your post!ManuelKomnenos (talk)03:08, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@TSventon I’ve amended my ANI post to try and express my meaning better.ManuelKomnenos (talk)03:13, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I didn't see that you had clarified your post at ANI until after I had posted on your talk page.TSventon (talk)03:27, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@TSventon I think the two events were simultaneous. Sorry again for the ambiguity!ManuelKomnenos (talk)03:41, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have just thought that Groenewegen-Frankfort and Ashmole's analysis of thePergamon Altar is quite similar to that in Keats'Ode on a Grecian Urn, "Beauty is truth, truth beauty". (I apologise in advance for ignoring the context of the quote.)TSventon (talk)10:25, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I suspect that they would thoroughly approve of that comparison! The urn Keats was enthusing over was presumably from the Archaic period, the heyday of Greek ceramic painting.ManuelKomnenos (talk)14:59, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
