One aspect of maintaining the island's ways was that no one in the household spoke English and, as a consequence, Peter Tripodes spoke only Greek until the age of six when he began to learn English from other children who were not Greek, a circumstance that created in him a lifelong interest in the study of the structure of language as it pertains to how one comes to understand spoken and written speech. His other interests include the study of the structure of reasoning as it is dealt with in philosophy and mathematics, two fields in which he earned advanced degrees. He is presently retired and lives in Venice, California.показать меньше
