Analects of the Core #161

In view of Prof. Fred Kleiner’s lecture this Tuesday on the art and politics of the Greek Acropolis, this week’s analects all concern the Athenian Parthenon.

The walls that fence our fields, as well as modern Rome, and not less the Parthenon itself, are all built of ruins.

- Henry David Thoreau
