老師您好：

我在馬里蘭大學的第一個學期結束了，這學期有繼續修古希臘文(The Iliad)，也找好資格考的口試委員，我主要會跟英文系的Brian Richardson(專長是敘事理論和二十世紀英國小說)和古典系的Lillian Doherty(專長是荷馬史詩)討論資格考書單。我的program的計畫是修完一年課後考資格考，因此寒假期間在擬書單草稿，以便下學期開學時和口試委員討論。下學期會選修古希臘史家，會讀Herodotus和Thucydides。這是我學業目前的進度，有其他進展再跟老師分享。

同安

​古希臘文引文：

ἔνθεν δ᾽ ἐννῆμαρ φερόμην ὀλοοῖσ’ ἀνέμοισι

πόντον ἐπ᾽ ἰχθυόεντα· ἀτὰρ δεκάτῃ ἐπέβημεν

γαίης Λωτοφάγων, οἵ τ᾽ ἄνθινον εἶδαρ ἔδουσιν.

ἔνθα δ᾽ ἐπ᾽ ἠπείρου βῆμεν καὶ ἀφυσσάμεθ᾽ ὕδωρ,

αἶψα δὲ δεῖπνον ἕλοντο θοῇς παρὰ νηυσὶν ἑταῖροι.

αὐτὰρ ἐπεὶ σίτοιό τ᾽ ἐπασσάμεθ᾽ ἠδὲ ποτῆτος,

δὴ τοτ᾽ ἐγὼν ἑτάρους προΐην πεύθεσθαι ἰόντας,

οἵ τινες ἀνέρες εἶεν ἐπὶ χθονὶ σῖτον ἔδοντες,

ἄνδρε δύω κρίνας, τρίτατον κήρυχ᾽ ἅμ᾽ ὀπάσσας.

οἱ δ᾽ αἶψ᾽ οἰχόμενοι μίγεν ἀνδράσι Λωτοφάγοισιν·

οὐδ᾽ ἄρα Λωτοφάγοι μήδονθ᾽ ἑτάροισιν ὄλεθρον

ἡμετέροισ’, ἀλλά σφι δόσαν λωτοῖο πάσασθαι.

古希臘文英譯：

And from there we were carried by the destructive winds for nine days at the fish-swarming sea, but on the tenth day we went on the land of the Lotus-Eaters, who eat the food made of flowers.

And quickly there we walked on land and drew water, and our companions took dinner nearby the swift ships.

But when we partook of food and drink, at that time indeed I for my part sent forth my companions to go to learn what men they were (dwelling) on the land and eating food, after I had picked out two men and had sent a third man as the herald at the same time.

And those who went their way quickly became mingled  with the people, i.e., the Lotus-Eaters. Then the Lotus-Eaters did not contrive destruction for my companions, but gave them to partake of the lotus.
