  abstract = {Once, as best I can recall, we were discussing heroes, and I tried to get him to discuss the concept of hero, from the individual-as-hero of the Greeks through the society-oriented hero of the Romans, mentioning several well-known scholars, but he refused even to consider it. "You're too much influenced by Greek and Latin already; too much of our literature and concepts are traced there already. Go beyond that, to the Sumerians, and before. Break the hold time has on you; get outside it."},
