There's not much to say about this, its beautiful poetry. Right from the start I was reminded of an ancient Egyptian love poem ("I was simply off to see Nefrus my friend") that I'd read for a class once, not that it was so similar to Sappho, but in how I was suddenly hearing a voice--I read poetry out loud whenever I can get away with it--that has been dead for well over 2,000 years.

I've never read Sappho before so I can't say if its this edition's translation and arrangement of her work that made me so entranced by it, but I was deeply disappointed when the poetry ended on page 28.

The rest of the book is a detailed biography, bibliography and history of Sappho, her poetry and its influence. It's such a slim thing, perfect for a quiet moment.

Despite Sappho being well... Sappho... I'm reading this mostly because of Catallus. I want to read this before I read him. He was such a big fan he called the woman he was in love with "Lesbia," ha. Anyway, her poems are actually gayer than I thought. She is, like, such a total lesbian.

Mostly fragments but fills in gaps in Greek lyric poetry.

"and what finer specimens could [the teacher of Latin and Greek] produce & comment on ... in Belles lettres than Homer, Anacreon, Theocritus, Virgil, Horace, Terence & the Greek tragedians, all of them school books?" - Thomas Jefferson to Jason Chamberlain, 1 Jul. 1814 [PTJ:RS 28:447-448]
