«'Including a general index (in addition to the reception index) and a very useful bibliography, this volume will be indispensable for all who are interested in Sappho and her tradition and for those working on archaic Greek poetry in general … Highly recommended.' P. Nieto, Choice Magazine»
«'Greater appreciation for Sappho's poems, increasing acceptance of lesbianism, poetic modernism, second-wave feminism, and feminist scholarship all contribute to a new view of her as poet and musician, yielding new fictions, and new translations…' Eva Stehle, Bryn Mawr Classical Review»
«'a 'friendly' and reliable travel 'Companion', a well-finished and elegant publication, entirely worthy of the quality of the publisher and the series, as well as of the poet to whom it is dedicated.' Camillo Neri, Gnomon (in Italian)»
«'Patrick Finglass and Adrian Kelly have mastered the task of presenting the entire knowledge of Sappho and her work in one monumental companion … The carefully edited book … will certainly be an important reference work that depicts current research trends.' Anton Bierl, Museum Helveticum (in German)»
