| Title: | Some narrowings and some widenings of perspectives for viewing the reception of Sappho in the ancient world |
| Publisher: | Harvard University, Center for Hellenic Studies |
| Description: | For an illustration that is most relevant to what I have to say in this essay, I show a line-drawing of a close-up from a vase painting by the Meidias Painter, whose artistic career, in Athens, can be dated to the late fifth century BCE. In this close-up, we see the picturing of a lady named Eurynoe (ΕΥΡΥΝΟΗ), who is playfully teasing a pet bird. As I noted in a previous essay, Nagy 2020.10.30, which I link here to the present essay, such a picturing may possibly be traced back to a comparable scene that is pictured in a now-lost song of Sappho. Such a possibility, however, depends on both a widening and a narrowing of perspectives, as I note in the title of this essay, for viewing the reception of Sappho in the ancient world.
