DJAREW’S SECRETS OF THE SCRIBES
recovering great books from classical ruins
Secrets of the Nile are hidden in European classics from Homer and Aeschylus to Virgil and the Bible. They were hidden by plagiarists after 522 BCE when Darius began to cook the books. That was Djarew’s theory which he tested in informal case studies now being released by his longtime secretary.
Djarew’s Notebooks
Uses: Djarew hoped to promote the study of classics, a discipline out of favor in his career, 1978-2006. His novel readings of old texts may interest creative writers and artists as well as teachers of classics, myth, history, and reading skills development.
