Four questions regarding your relationship with Classics

 Dear Colleagues,

Sorry about the potential cross post, but I was hoping you could help me
accomplish a rather unusual idea.

I'm a PhD student from Portugal; the fact I have a degenerative disease,
together with the fact many of the people who inspired me to study Classics
have died or retired recently, made me wonder about other people's own
stories and relationships with Classics.

So, I would like to compile and publish people's answers to a small number
of questions regarding their personal relationship with Classics. I was
hoping *you* would be able to share with me your own answers to four
questions:

"1- What led you to study Classics?

2- What is the most unexpected thing you learned through your study in
Classics?

3- What impact did studying Classics have in your life?

4- If you could recommend a single book or article to other readers, what
would it be, and why?

- Would you like to be credited for your answers? If so, under what name?
[E.g. 'John Doe, Professor at the University of Thule', or simply
'Anonymous']"

Your answers would then be published, at least in ebook form, and hopefully
they'd inspire future students. Is anyone interested in helping with this?
I would gladly send you a copy of the final PDF file, but I'd need to
collect at least 10 different answers, or else the appeal of the work would
seem very limited.

If you can help, please send me your answers in private by the 1st of July
2019.

Sincerely,
Miguel Abrantes
