  • Resumen

  • Some men say and army of horses and some men say an army on foot

    and some men say an army of ships is the most beautiful thing

    on the black earth. But I say it is

    what you love.

    Easy to make this understood by all.

    For she who overcame everyone

    in beauty (Helen)

    left her fine husband

    behind and went sailing to Troy.

    Not for her children nor her dear parents

    had she a thought, no-

    ]reminded me now of Anaktoria

    who is gone.

    I would rather see her lovely step

    and the motion of light on her face

    than chariots of Lydians or ranks

    of footsoldiers in arms

We Need More Podcasts Like This

I love history. I love the history of strong women even more and dont get me started on things like gender and "queer" history. I'll talk your ear off lol. To see a podcast like this makes me so happy. Even better is how far they go in the history of Sappho, what we know of any way, and even bring in other historian makes me want to dance. I am learning new things I didn't know before and am being pointed in the direction of other researchers and poets that can further my own personal research. I will definitely suggest this to other people!
