Quiet tutorials

[edit]

This article notes that Raven died in 1980 and retired in 1984. While it is perfectly plausible that a Cambridge Classics don in the early 1980s could have been dead for years without anyone noticing any decline in the standard of tutorials or research output, it appears at least possible that the date of retirement is an error.

I can't actually find any retirement date for him in the sources, and he was young enough that I'm not sure he did ever retire. The retirement date was unsourced, so I've removed it. UndercoverClassicist T·C 13:30, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ναί. Τοῦτο ἐστὶ τὸ βέλτιστον ὁδὸς. Ἔοικεν γὰρ ἧττον ἔχειν ὅτι οἱ μαθηταὶ καὶ οἱ συνάδελφοι οὐκ ἐνόησαν ὅτι ἀπέθανεν. Emmentalist (talk) 21:07, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I suppose it would be one way to follow λάθε βιώσας. UndercoverClassicist T·C 21:37, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
