| Evidence: | G. C. Lewis to George Grote, 5 April 1846:
'I cannot resist writing to express to you the satisfaction, as well as instruction, which I have
gained from reading the two published volumes of your "History." You have succeeded
completely in placing the whole question of the mythology and legendary narrations of the
Greeks upon what I believe to be their true footing [comments further on text].' |
