Abstract

I argue here in this posting for 2015.11.05 that the expression dēute (δηὖτε) as used at lines 15 and 16 and18 in Song 1 of Sappho refers not only to some episodically recurrent emotion of love as experienced by the speaker but also to the seasonally recurrent performance of the song on festive occasions that I reconstruct back to the earliest attested phases of the song’s evolution.
