The meaning and function of the Cleobis and Biton tale in the Croesus logos of Herodotus' Histories
Franco Basso on the meaning and function of the Cleobis and Biton tale in the Croesus logos

The talk also considers the wider importance of this short passage in Herodotus' account of the Lydian king Croesus.

Becoming A Weaver - Erez Biton - Israel/Morocco
Translator: Tsipi Keller (Hebrew)
At the Jerusalem School for the Blind
Mister Zvi, the school principal,
would introduce me to visitors
and say:
“This boy
when he grows up
we will make for him
one strap for the left shoulder
one strap for the right shoulder
and turn him into a weaver
who will weave rugs
for kings and princes.”
I did not become a weaver
and yet
at times
during moments of grace
my poems turn into
small rugs
for all and sundry
