Hippolytus Temporizes & Ion: Adaptations of Two Plays by Euripides

Buch

Brilliant reworkings of Euripides' classic dramas by the great modernist poet H.D., now available in one volume.

Über den Autor


H.D. (1886-1961) (the pen name of Hilda Doolittle) was born in the Moravian community of Bethlehem, PA in 1886. A major twentieth century poet with an ear more subtle than Pound's, Moore's, or Yeats's as Marie Ponsot writes, she was the author of several volumes of poetry, fiction, essays, and memoirs. She is perhaps one of the best-known and prolific women poets of the Modernist era. Bryher Ellerman was a novelist and H.D.'s wealthy companion. She financed H.D.'s therapy with Freud.
