I almost forgot...

Or rather I did forget to mention this article from the New York Times about Greece's demands for the return of the Elgin Marbles.



Kimmelman does an excellent job contextualizing the debate over who, if anyone, can "own" culture. Its a fascinating argument that continues to rage between Great Britain and Greece, and it promises not to be resolved any time soon.

Read and enjoy.
