Greek poets: Sappho, circa 650 BCE, whose poems were composed in the
Ancient Greek dialect of her birthplace, the island of Lesbos, Greece; and
Constantine P. Cavafy, who lived from April 29, 1863 to April 29, 1933,
wrote his poems in Modern Greek, and lived most of his life in Alexandria,
Egypt.
My adaptations of Sappho’s fragments from the Ancient Greek are presented
as songs, and numbered according to the standardized textual organization of
the most reliable and commonly referenced scholarly editions of her
fragmentary compositions (Lobell and Page, D.A. Campbell, E. Voigt, G.
Nagy, D. Yatromanolakis). / 2031-01-01T00:00:00Z
