Mermaids and tasseled charlatanism

The Sirens and Odysseus

Do you remember the sirens from the myth of the Road? (Kanga XII)

It is one of the most beautiful and famous passages in the entire Odyssey. But why? Because inside this myth is hidden a bone truth.

"No one has passed here without stopping to listen to the sweetness of our song," the sirens say to the great Guide. And they don't lie: with their song they lure, enchant, enchant sailors and push them to jump into the sea to end up in the strait between Scylla and Carybdis.

Yes, the hero uses a trick to survive: he ties himself to the mast of the ship and covers the ears of his fellow sailors with wax so that they cannot hear.

Now, what does Homer say? A vulnerable person is the easiest thing to deceive.

Those who speak honestly tell the truth, the masses often laugh at them, misunderstand them, ignore them.

Such examples abound in mythology, even more so in history.

The masses prefer those who seduce, flatter. Spectacle is the current language of politics. The masses want siren pimps.

II "Iliad" with the tassel of the charlatan.

But what does academic charlatanism have to do with the heroes of mythology?

Followers of the generally political chronicle remember that not more than a month ago, the Academy of Official Scientists of Albania emerged from a "heroic" fight against "charlatans."

Etim explains that a charlatan is someone who is removed who is not for profit. The typical example is someone who presents himself as a healer without being a doctor.

Then it follows in all forms and performances in different fields.

The academics among them and Xhufi signed a lightning sheet with the revolutionary call to the TVs to remove the television and media space from some who messed around in history and linguistics without authorization, without tag. Because they were charlatans. They were folkloric and confused mythology with science.

The answer was as laconic as it was epic: "...charlatans are those who have titles, without research and scientific works..."

Perhaps our academics have regretted not finding the word, because for the first time in 50 years, the lazy Albanian, or rather incompetent, "science" encountered opposition.

And the opposition in one form or another is a kind of mirror that brings out the charlatan charlatans, and such arrogant ones, as they are.

III The conquest of Athens and the historian's muse

The fact that we took Athens "guts out" was inadvertently brought out by the jufi-historian, who, carried away by the pathos of the Prime Minister's speech in Athens, spoke not of two, but of ten thousand heroes-patronages who are applauded. (Only the academics of the organization founded by the party know what the historian has to do with pathos.)

Desolate Homer!

The muse (or the fly) in the mind of our historian sings not the evidence, nor the memory of Achilles, but of his scoundrel: Ten thousand were the attackers of Troy, ten years the victory lasted, ten thousand did the academician with a tassel make the patronages who destroyed today's Athens without any resistance.

Maybe when the muse (or the fly) leaves the historian's head, he will see that the Greeks are not at all taken by the fools that his "siren" spewed.

Because according to the ten-thousand-year-old teachings of the poem, Micotaqis himself was tied to the "mast of the affairs of his government, while the Greeks waxed their ears.

Anyway, they gave Skanderbuch a piece of lawn for rent so that he could free himself from patriotic pathos for the ears of patron Nazis and especially academics.
