almost every thing that you think of as "normal" is a Greek paradigm:
the primacy of the individual
the linear passage of time
cause and effect occurrences
the relationship between the natural and the spiritual
what it means to be a god
how to learn and teach
how language is used in social or public settings
the way stories are told
your image of your self
what death means

those are just examplesWww@QuestionHome@Com

Aeneas (a Trojan) abandoned the burning walls of Troy and went on to found the greatest empire ever - Rome!. Well, his offspring, Romulus and Remus did!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
