by GREGORY GORIN translated for radio by MICHAEL GLENNY
In 356 BC the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, was burnt down by Herostratus, a young market trader. Before his execution, the arsonist confessed that he did it to achieve immortality. In response, the rulers decreed that the name of Herostratus should be consigned to oblivion. Easier said than done - particularly when the playwright, armed with the hindsight of history, takes part in the action.
