Sappho, an outstanding poetess in ancient Greece, was praised by Plato as the tenth goddess of wisdom and occupied an important position in the history of western culture and literature. However, there is no comprehensive introduction and translation of her poems in China. As a scholar studying literature, the author has specially collected Sappho's poems and translated this relatively complete collection of Sappho's poems, which is a great contribution to the study of ancient Greek literature.
Most of Sappho's poems are short and pithy, and there are also some long works, whether lyric poems or traditional Greek narrative poems. No matter what genre, it has the simplicity and freshness unique to ancient poets, flashing the wisdom of idle people. In today's fast-reading society, it is not easy to translate, publish and read classical poems, get in touch with classical literature and breathe the essence of classical culture. This is a reading method that should be advocated.
