#50 - Sappho: The Lost Poetess

It was said her poetry will be sung as long as there are boats on the nile... There are still boats on the nile (last I checked) and yet almost no one know her works...

So who exactly was Sappho? Why was she so controversial and what happened to her prolific body of work? 

Discover the remarkable life, work and loss of the 7th century BC poetess who was considered equal to Homer in this week's Classical Wisdom Speaks episode.
