- All of the poetry, for Sappho, was oral and communal. The Greek people would experience poetry during feasting and liturgical celebration. How is poetry different from this now? How might poetry today be enjoyed similarly?
- Discuss what it means for poetry to be thought of as magic (that, by manipulating language, one could also manipulate the reality that it described)?
- How do the themes of Sappho’s poetry speak to all ages?
