I like bread. As long as it's good bread; I don't like those german bricks. Ham and red peppers on bread with sesameseeds. Hmm. I wouldn't enjoy eating Euchleban bread al day, though.
This passage is quite weird, especially on its own.

Continuing my journey, I enter the following day Euxleba (Euchleba), where there are as many non-bakers as hairs on top of my fathers head. While I walk in the evening, a naked man, big given below, and his geriman boyfriend pass me singing and laughing. Having lost my appetite/hunger for bread I return to sleep.
I would like to know more about Pavsanio's opinion on the customs and ways of other Luriones.
ReplyDeleteWell, generally, homosexuality is not at all frowned upon, but public nudity and drunkenness are considered very rude.
ReplyDeleteAs for Pavsanio, I guess he'll try (and fail) to be somewhat objective when describing unusual cultural features such as human sacrifice or throwing drunks off a cliff.
