Wolfe Greek curiosa

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Since there's been so much discussion of Wolfe's "Greek" novels, I=20
thought y'all might enjoy seeing some Wolfe translated into Greek at the=20
site below; specifically, Wolfe's story "The Hero as Werwolf."  Even if=20
you can't make much sense of the text, perhaps you can figure out=20
(although I'm sure the erudite members of this list already know) where=20
we get the word "lycanthropy."  :-)
