Sappho Through English Poetry
Sappho
The poetry of Sappho, who was born around 620 BC and lived on the Greek island of Lesbos, has inspired and fascinated readers and poets for two and a half thousand years. As in antiquity, she is regarded as Greece's supreme lyric poet. This book traces Sappho's reception in English-language poetry through translations and poems about her.
