Such smooth flow of words in defining a human emotion. Beautiful!

........ even after 2600 years, Sappho's verse keep being very inspirational to us all poets....

An immortal goddess of inspiration from the isle of Lesbos, the tenth muse according to Plato himself and a high priestess of enchantment for the enduring beauty and contemporary appeal of her surviving fragments. She lives on eternally.

I hope someone can help me. It is my understanding that Winnaretta Singer, the Princesse de Polignac, made many translations of Sappho's poems at the turn of the 20th century (Perhaps between 1900-1914, but possibly not until after WWl) . I would like to find them, but have not been successful so far.

Is there a Sappho scholar reading this who can help me? If so, please feel free to email me at Linda5051@aol.com as soon as you read this.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Here's another one, not included in this anthology:

Mountain Wind

Just as the wind
in the mountains
blows the oaks
assunder, so did
Eros
blow my mind.

It's rare to find so many fragments of her divine lyrics. I'm in Arcadia.......!
Uriah Hamilton (7/12/2005 7:23:00 AM)

The greatest poet of them all,
though only beautiful fragments remain
because of the Christian Era
fearing her love!
