Together with sundrie abuses of fasting in three generations of hypocrites: the first in the dayes of the prophets: the second in the dayes of Christ: the third in the dayes of Antichrist.

Yet ironically, as Page DuBois shows, the historical poet herself remains elusive. We know that Sappho's contemporary Alcaeus described her as 'violet, pure, honey-smiling Sappho'; and that the rhetorician and philosopher Maximus of Tyre saw her, perhaps less enthusiastically, as 'small and dark'. We also know that her 7th/6th century BCE island of Lesbos was riven by tyrannical and aristocratic factionalism and that she was probably exiled to Sicily. Much of the rest is speculative. DuBois suggests that the value of Sappho lies elsewhere: in her remarkable verse, and in the poet's reception - one of the richest of any figure from antiquity. Offering nuanced readings of the poems, written in an archaic Aeolic dialect, DuBois skillfully draws out their sharp images and rhythmic melody. She further discusses the exciting discovery of a new verse fragment in 2004, and the ways in which Sappho influenced Catullus, Horace and Ovid, as well as later writers and painters."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aUnderstanding classics. 606 $aPoets, Greek 606 $aLiterary studies: classical, early & medieval$2BIC 615 0$aPoets, Greek. 615 7$aLiterary studies: classical, early & medieval. 676 $a884.01 686 $aHIS002000$aSOC017000$aSOC032000$2bisacsh 700 $aDuBois$b Page$0224110 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910162793303321 996 $aSappho$92962290 997 $aUNINA
