“萨福”：一个欧美文学传统的生成
Compiled By Tian Xiaofei
In the European and American literary tradition, if Homer is the father, then Sappho is the mother. Her incomplete poems are an accident in the history of literature, which partly constitutes its enduring charm and leaves endless space for the imagination of future generations. Through the compilation, translation and annotation of Sappho's poems, Tian Xiaofei allows us to enter the classics and feel its literary charm; at the same time, she briefly combs the spread of Sappho's poems and how the past generations have reconstructed Sappho and the myth of Sappho, presenting the generation process of "Sappho" as a European and American literary tradition.
