Focused on translating selected works of the ancient Greek lyric poet Sappho, this book offers a fresh perspective on her poetry. The author, Henry De Vere Stacpoole, was influenced by his extensive travels and experiences as a ship's doctor, which enriched his storytelling. Originally published in 1920, this edition includes a new introductory biography, highlighting Stacpoole's literary journey, including his notable works like The Blue Lagoon. The translation aims to capture the essence of Sappho's lyrical expression and emotional depth.
