Abstract

Sappho’s Second Ode was introduced to the Europeans in the middle of the 16th century through the efforts of the French Hellenist and typographer Henri Etienne, who had included it into his collection of the Classical texts. Since then, the Ode was firmly established among the primary texts of the European culture. The prevailing translation tradition, however, had the Sapphic love triangle transformed both into the traditional ars amatoria and the other forms of romantic relationships. The article offers a typology of the Russian translations of the Second Ode, and analyzes their literary contexts.
