Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sappho and the Vigil of Venus The plan on which the following translations have been attempted is, I believe, original, and, I freely admit, audacious. The translator has essayed to weave together into connected wholes fragments which, being in the same metre, and, being conceiv ably connected in a sequence, or sequences, of thought, may possibly have been parts of one poem.

Download or read book The Sappho Companion written by Margaret Reynolds and published by Random House. This book was released on 2010-12-15 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born around 630BC on the Greek island of Lesbos, Sappho is now regarded as the greatest lyrical poet of ancient Greece, ironic and passionate, capturing the troubled depths of love. Her work survives only in fragments, yet her influence extends throughout Western literature, fuelled by the speculations and romances which have gathered around her name, her story and her sexuality.This remarkable anthology brilliantly displays the way different periods have taken up Sappho's haunting story bringing together many different kinds of work. We see her image change, re-created in Ovid's poetry and Boccaccio's tales, in translations by Pope, Rossetti and Swinburne, Baudelaire, in the modern versions of Eavan Boland, Ruth Padel and Jeanette Winterson.

Download or read book Sappho written by Henry Thornton Wharton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-05 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sappho: Memoir, Text, Selected Renderings and a Literal Translation It is curious to note how early in the history of printing the literature of Sappho began. The British Museum contains a sort of commentary on Sappho which is dated 1475 in the Catalogue; this is but twenty years later than the famous Mazarin Bible, and only one year after the firstbook was printed in England. It is written in Latin by Georgius Alexandrinus Merula, and is of much interest, apart from its strange type and contractions of words.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sappho and Phaon: A Tragedy This volume constitutes the text of Mr. Harrison Grey Fiske's production of Sappho and Phaon for Madame Kalich and her company, and consists of that main portion of my published play entitled T he Tragedy. The other portions - Prologue, In duction, Prelude, Interludes, and Epilogue - which form an archaeological setting for The Tragedy, or play proper, it has been decided in the present pro duction to omit; not because they are considered by manager or author as impractical for use in the theatre, or as disproportionate in relation to the whole, but because the results of their inclusion were not deemed sufficiently predictable to warrant their pro duction at this time. And in this decision the author has heartily concurred. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Phaon and Sappho written by J. D. Hosken and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Phaon and Sappho: A Play, With Selection of Poems I am unwilling to let "Phaon and Sappho" pass from my control into the outer world without a word of apology for one or two anachronisms, which if not apparent to the general reader, will readily suggest themselves to the scholar. It will be seen that Melanthus in putting his daughters innocence to the test of arms, adopts the manners of chivalry, in which the fundamental ideas with regard to womanhood were entirely different from those held by the Greeks, during the time in which the events of this Play are supposed to have had place. The nearest approach to the tournament of chivalry in classic writers is the contest between Paris and Menelaus, in the III Book of the Iliad, where the chance of victory as deciding the virtue of a third person is never once dreamed of, to the Greek such a subtilty would be above the proof of a physical issue! Also it may be said that Grecian ideas were insufficient to express the fulness and entirety of Kuman life, according to the usages of the modern Playwright as its exponent: - accordingly here and there some words may suggest ideas which were unknown to the Greek before the institution of Christianity; but which are perfectly at home in a work - 'Withholding time, But flattering the golden prime." At this time so prolific in criticism, it would be rather late to point out anachronisms similar to those which I have alluded to in my own work, in the writings of some of the first rate minds of the past. I leave Phaon and Sappho therefore to those who are able to take the impression of an unsophisticated human nature and age, uncurbed by the critical element which surrounds the conventionalities of modern life.
