Sappho: A Tragedy, In Five Acts is a play written by Franz Seraphim Grillparzer and published in 1820. The play is based on the life of the ancient Greek poet Sappho, who was known for her lyrical poetry and her association with love and beauty. The play is set on the island of Lesbos, where Sappho lived and worked, and explores her relationships with other women, her struggles with love and desire, and her eventual tragic end. The play is written in five acts, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Sappho's life and work. The play is considered a classic of German literature and is widely regarded as one of the most important works of the Romantic era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
