We hope readers have enjoyed the quest for the ultimate goal, of finding enough re Sarah Vinke, to say how she came to be aware of the Ancient Greek " Arête' ", and from this, tease out why she introduced the corresponding concept of "Quality", to Robert Pirsig, Author of book "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance". In particular, we want readers to see just why Sarah asked Robert Pirsig, "Are you teaching Quality?"we hope we have established, the absolutely vital role Sarah Vinke played in it, and the key inspiration she gave its author Robert Pirsig to focus on 'Quality. This was so our readers would fully understand, how Sara Vinke and Montana State College were crucial, to how ZMM came to be written. It was Sarah's Classics training (Grinnell College & U Wisconsin Graduate School), and most particularly her deep understanding of the Ancient Greek life practice of Arête' (her Quality), that enabled and embolden her to be the outstanding person she became. Thus: In writing our Sarah Vinke Biography, our investigative journey, we have answered many questions as to "The Mystery ¿ The Mystique ¿ The Enigma ¿ of Sarah Vinke". And thus, there is a NEW Mystery, and a critical one, since this evidently turned Sarah's own path to the full realization, for all of us & especially Robert Pirsig, of the vital importance of the Ancient Greek's (not Romans), and thus she must have become more fully aware, vitally aware, of their living excellence, their highest aspirations, their Arête'.

Books like A Woman of Quality Sarah Vinke, 'the Divine Sarah', and the Quest for the Origin of Robert Pirsig's Metaphysics of Quality,
