About this book

Everything then known of Sappho's own words is gathered here in Greek and English, with a memoir of the poet. Henry Thornton Wharton first brought the book out in 1885, and this is the fifth edition, of 1908, with a picture after Alma-Tadema as frontispiece. He follows the Greek text of Bergk and includes a rendering of the Hymn to Aphrodite by J. Addington Symonds, versions by Palgrave, and a bibliography of writing on the poet.
