[MarshaV]

Adrie,

There is a difference between ancient Greek and modern Greek.  Is you 
wife a philologist?  Has Turkey a different religion than either Islamic, 
Jewish or Christian, because I understand all three to be considered of the 
Abrahamic traditions?   The Pheadrus that I've read was written by Plato.
What version of the Pheadrus by Aristotle are you referencing?
