080757 -
080758 - Sent ref DIT 1 0001 asking for help in developing educational interest
080759 - in improving the alphabet.
080760 -
080761 -     This supplements the letter to John Hilton at the University of
080762 -     Natal on 991123. ref SDS 92 0001
080763 -
080764 - The editorial policy of Arion says...
080765 -
080766 -      MORE THAN humane philology is essential for keeping the classics
080767 -      as a living force. Arion therefore exists to publish work that
080768 -      needs to be done and that otherwise might not get done. We want
080769 -      to stimulate, provoke, even "plant" work that now finds no
080770 -      encouragement or congenial home elsewhere. This means swimming
080771 -      against the mainstream, resisting the extremes of conventional
080772 -      philology and critical fashion into which the profession is now
080773 -      polarized. But occupying this vital center should in no way
080774 -      preclude the crucial centrifugal movement that may lead us across
080775 -      disciplinary lines and beyond the academy. Our commitment is to a
080776 -      genuine and generous pluralism that opens up rather than
080777 -      polarizes classical studies. We will not be coerced into
080778 -      conforming either to the traditional paradigms or to the "new"
080779 -      metaphysic and ideological absolutism of contemporary theory. If
080780 -      we are to move beyond the cant of "isms" now dominating the
080781 -      academy, intellectual daring is needed, not disciplinary
080782 -      diffidence.
080783 -
080784 -      "We are in quest of freshness of vision, distinction of thought
080785 -      (as opposed to professional group-think), rigor of imagination,
080786 -      and an energetic sense of the spaciousness of the classical
080787 -      tradition."
080788 -
080789 -      --from the Editorial Statement

080872 -          This might support the concept that communication is the

080874 -          improve productivity more than cost and schedule control.
