Welcome to
Athena's Annexe
a place of ideas and bustling activity where the daemon knows no sleep. Some say it's a candlelit scriptorium, others the blinding footpaths that criss-cross the Hill of the Muses. For you it may look different still. But The Annexe, in its essence, is that quiet place of wonder where the thinker ponders, the artist works, the scribe writes and the student learns.
As the clock strikes the witching hour and I return to my studies, I invite you to peruse my notes as I attempt to find out more about the world, its languages, its history, its vibrant cultures and the rich experiences it has to offer.
Explore the most recent projects I have worked on to develop my skills in writing, translation, editing, and use of foreign languages.
See which texts I'm currently reading as part of my autodidactic studies. Current Focus: The Middle Ages.
From recent beginnings to bedrock foundations, here you will find an updated list of my languages, linguistic experiments and learning aims for the calendar year.
THE ANNEXE
is a digital space designed to house the muses and document the learning of an autodidact with a thing for languages and a basic knowledge of web design.
Visitors to the site are welcome to read and explore my polyglot projects for pleasure or educational purposes.
