It's just one of those facts, that the BBC are supposed to love so much. It's why Western culture has been adopted to such a great extent across the globe. That's not to say other cultures don't have offerings to make to what you might now call world culture but when you look at the output of art, novels, plays, architecture, music, and of course scientific discovery as well, there is really no comparison. That's what Beard, Schama and the rest cannot admit - not because it isn't true but because they don't want it to be true. <br /> Monkey Brainsnoreply@blogger.com
