ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Anne Carson

Anne Carson (born June 21, 1950) is a Canadian poet, essayist, translator, and classics teacher. Carson lived in Montreal for several years and taught at McGill University, the University of Michigan, and Princeton University from 1980 to 1987. He was a Guggenheim Fellow in 1998 and, in 2000, he received a scholarship from MacArthur. In 1986, Carson published his first book, Eros the Bittersweet. Named one of the 100 best nonfiction books of all time by the Modern Library, the book traces the concept of "eros" in ancient Greece through its depictions in the poetry of the time. Carson seriously considers how triangular and mimetic desires were represented in Sappho's poetry, as well as Eros' relationship to loneliness. Famously, Carson analyzes Fragment 31 of Sappho as representing "eros as deferred, challenged, obstructed, hungry, organized around a radiant absence—to represent eros as lack."
