11/7: fragment 31

This evening I'm at school preparing a presentation for tomorrow afternoon on Sappho's fragment 31.  It's a piece of poetry I've loved for years, and so it seemed like a natural choice for a campus talk--but then I worried that I would be rehashing my decades-old thoughts about it.  Of course, there will be some revisiting of ideas, but tonight I also found new things to notice and say, which has been fun (and a relief).
