Here’s Adam Roberts critiquing my annotations of Auden’s “Winds” – and offering a very thoughtful reading of that poem. I don’t agree that I’m wrong in every case, but I definitely missed Pausanias’s reference to Athena as goddess of winds. Grrrrr. (That’s the problem with publishing anything — you get to grind your teeth for all eternity over what you mess up.)
