[QUOTE="Herberto, post: 2785496, member: 74222"]I see. You(and two others) are certainly 100% right that I should not be so sure about the depiction of the event of the Alexandria I have portrait. Antiquity and Middle Ages were part of my curriculum but we did not cover the Library part, and I relied much on these two internet account to fill a hole in which I surely should not have done. The academia do no longer accept the outdated notion that Roman Empire collapsed because of Constantine and his religion, or that the early Christians despised the works of Plato, Galen or Ptolemy for the reasons I already have explained. But that part about Library I obviously have made a big mistake as it appears that there are many gaps and loose ends. You were right about the library.[/QUOTE]
