Autobiography of Red by Ann Carson

This is an excerpt from the paper...

Ann Carson's Autobiography of Red features the names Stesichorus; Geryon; Geryon's red dog, Geryoneis; and Herakles. Carson did not invent these figures; they have a reality outside her fiction.

Stesichorus, for example, was a 6th-century poet whose name means "chorus master" ("Stesichorus"). Inspired by Homer, he specialized in long narrative poems having mythological themes and wrote similar stories, such as "The Wooden Horse" and "The Capture of Troy" ("Stesichorus"). Stesichorus is said to have been struck blind for writing a slanderous poem about Helen and to have recovered his sight after recanting the poem ("Stesichorus"). All that remain of his poems are approximately 30 fragments no longer than six lines each ("Stesichorus").
