Greek lyric poet, born on the island of
Lesbos. The
Alexandrians included her in the list of
nine lyric poets. She was born sometime between 630 and 612 BCE, and it is said that she died around 570 BCE, but little is known for certain about her life. The bulk of her poetry, which was well-known and greatly admired through much of
antiquity, has been lost; however, her immense reputation has endured through surviving fragments.
