About the author
Bonnie MacLachlan is a professor of Classics at the University of Western Ontario. In addition to a number of scholarly articles on Ancient Greek Poetry and Religion, she has produced three books on academic subjects: one (co-edited) on Ancient Music and Philosophy, Harmonia Mundi, (Rome 1991), The Age of Grace (Princeton University Press, Princeton, 1993) and (a co-edited volume) Virginity Revisited: Configurations of the Unpossessed Body (University of Toronto Press, Toronto, 2007). She got to know Seda as her student, admired her writing ability and followed her through many of her difficult moments in the years before she died.
