Very enlightening and many of them, entertaining. It was interesting seeing how things told so many years ago have been ingrained in our everyday lives and way of thinking. The meaning of some gets a little distorted due to the translation but reading them in English gave me new perspective in the effect they have had not only on Greek culture, but worldwide. I still prefer them in Greek, since, as a rule, the original is (almost) always better.
