Songs of Sappho
2 journalers for this copy...
I found this slightly-battered hardcover at a neighborhood yard sale. It's a collection of Sappho's works - primarily the more complete ones, though a lot of fragments are included - from a variety of translators, and with some illustrations by Stanley Wyatt. In some cases the same fragment is provided in more than one translation, which adds interest. I don't know how this compares to more scholarly works, but it struck me as a lovely introduction to the works of Sappho.
