Fragments of Sappho
Dimitrios Yatromanolakis
Representing the beginnings of women’s poetry in European cultures, Sappho’s songs have become an influential and complex sociopolitical paradigm related to female same-sex intimacy in modern eras. The first large-scale commentary in English in the last fifty years, this book fills a major gap in research on archaic Greece and provides interdisciplinary introductory studies and comprehensive commentary on major fragments of Sappho.
