Minnich's attack on the ancient Greeks reminded me of my own more traditionalintroduction to "The Greeks." When I was in high school, my mother gave me EdithHamilton's The Greek Way. It inspired in me a great interest in philosophy andclassical art. Today, the many pedagogues who follow the Minnich line protect highschool girls from such books.35.
