About This Item
Synopsis
Bilitis naquit au commencement du sixieme siecle avant notre ere, dans un village de montagnes situe sur les bords du Melas, vers l'orient de la Pamphylie. Ce pays est grave et triste, assombri par des forets profondes, domine par la masse enorme du Taurus; des sources petrifiantes sortent de la roche; de grands lacs sales sejournent sur les hauteurs, et les vallees sont pleines de silence.
