I see your point, Jack. However, I was taught that "smth is done WITH an instrument," and in such cases I always confuse "by" with "with"
Jack Doughty Nov 24, 2005:
No. The decree is the instrument by which the award was made.
Nik-On/Off (asker) Nov 24, 2005:
By a decree? Doesn't this mean that it is the decree who :) awarded...? Wouldn't be better to write: According to a decree of..., XX was awarded?
Nik-On/Off (asker) Nov 24, 2005:
