Meant to say, I thought it was a great essay on the topic. I think for all of the arguing, it describes how changing the classics is going to get done - department by department, changing to meet the particular demands of particular universities.

Absolutely! I've never had trouble filling intro ancient history classes and keeping them full. But we've got departments sinking - like U-Vermont, most recently. And what I worry about is that we sit atop centuries-long projects to make Greek and Latin lit. accessible....

...and I worry we run the risk now of having some links in that chain break and losing some of that accumulated progress (though, to be clear, I also think we need to be pushing that same progress along in other corners of antiquity which received less attention).

I suppose what I'm saying is that in teaching and outreach, we need to be in-translation-first, because that's how we foster the interest and support which will keep Latin and Greek at the advanced level alive, which is in turn necessary to offer the in-translation.
