There have been a number of “complete” catalogs of Sappho’s work published over the centuries. Issues of access and datedness aside, this one is likely to be of the greatest interest to readers of this project, not only for the care with which Snyder leads the reader through the meaning of the Greek texts, but due to her overt openness to interpreting the poems within a homoerotic context.
Remember: the Lesbian Historic Motif Project is going to be doing All Sappho All the TIme for Pride Month. In addition to the blogs, check out the podcasts!
