Users by language Sappho Selanna I work at the University of Vienna and at Academies of Sciences in Austria and neighbouring countries. For quick reference, I use Wikipedia from time to time, where I come across various errors and inaccuracies, which has ultimately led me to make corrections (typos, errors in content) and additions on a case-by-case basis. However, my time is very limited in this respect. About my pseudonym I call myself Sappho Selanna because I am fascinated by Sappho as a poet and because I work on the computer most nights (σελάννα = moon). My favourite poem by her is: Δέδυκε μὲν ἀ σελάννα καὶ Πληίαδες· µέσαι δὲ νύκτες, πάρα δ᾿ ἔρχετ ὤρα· ἔγω δὲ μόνα κατεύδω Dédyke mèn a selánna kai Plêíades; mésai dè nýktes, pára d'érkhet' óra; égô dè móna kateúdô. Now the moon has already set, and also the Pleiades. It is mid- night; time passes. And solitary, I lie. Sappho Selanna on the web I also run a YouTube channel under the same pseudonym.
