Could It All Have Been Avoided? ©1998 NICOLEA

 Niobe's children are killed by Apollo and Diana,
Pierre Charles Jombert

a) On the other hand, wouldn't all of this have changed if those in command had inquired into the reasons why someone in the house appeared to be withdrawn and suffering, or why the laws and rules of the family had been broken?

b) Or, if that wouldn't have changed anything, what could have?

c) Is it not likely that if some authority had sought to understand the circumstances of the situation, rather than reacting to it, that it would have changed things so much that the problem would not have come into existence?

d) But, if it were possible for that understanding to have developed, would that mean that those involved would have moved from merely being members of a clan to becoming members of a real family, or group? Please explain.

Map of TO ARTEMIS










May we preserve these philosophical beauties, and exhibit them to others. May this web site expand their elegance by the enlivening rays of the philosophic fire; and by the powerful breath of genius, scatter abroad in this virtual world these latent but copious seeds.

If some sparks of this celestial fire shall animate the reader, consider yourself as well rewarded for this laborious undertaking. Ancient philosophy has been, for centuries, the only study to break the shackles of ignorance; and in which one finds an inexhaustible treasure of intellectual wealth, and a perpetual fountain of wisdom and delight.

Presuming that such a pursuit bestows the highest benefit, I, Webmistress, desire no other reward than the wealth of wisdom, and Reason as my constant Guide. If successful, may I see the praise of the liberal; and if not, I expect no defense for failure, other than the decision of the candid, and discerning few, thus the opportunity to learn, and purgation by philosophic fire.
