The woman-made world described in Sappho's songs has been discussed
and analysed for centuries. In "Sappho's Sweetbitter Songs," late
twentieth century theories of feminism, psychoanalysis and literary
criticism are applied to Sappho's lyrics for the first time. The
study recreates and examines a voice that sings of the dreams and
interactions of women, tells of the bodies, rhythms and desires of
the women of Sappho's circle. At the same time it offers an
analysis of sexual difference, comparing the homoerotic lyrics of
male poets of that era to those of Sappho.
