# Sappho: One Hundred Lyrics

By Bliss Carman.

"Sappho: One Hundred Lyrics" by Bliss Carman is a collection of poetry published in 1904. Taking fragments from the ancient Greek poet Sappho's lost works, Carman imaginatively reconstructs complete poems, creating what critics call his finest volume. Written from a feminine perspective, these elegant lyrics explore themes of love and melancholy while maintaining the flavor of translation alongside original creativity. The collection's unified structure and consistent quality earned praise from poets like Wallace Stevens and influenced the Imagist movement. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
