Produktbeschreibung
Anne Le Fèvre Dacier, (1654 17 August 1720), better known during her lifetime as Madame Dacier, was a French scholar and translator of the classics. She was born at Saumur and was raised there. Her father, Tanneguy Le Fèvre, died in 1672 and she moved to Paris, carrying with her part of an edition of Callimachus, which she afterwards published. This was so well received that she was engaged as one of the editors of the Delphin series of classical authors, in which she edited Publius Annius Florus, Dictys Cretensis, Sextus Aurelius Victor and Eutropius. Through her father she met her husband André Dacier, who was his pupil. In 1681 appeared her prose version of Anacreon and Sappho, and in the next few years, she published prose versions of Terence and some of the plays of Plautus and Aristophanes. In 1684 she and her husband retired to Castres, with the object of devoting themselves to theological studies. In 1685 the Daciers were rewarded with a pension by Louis XIV of France fortheir conversion to Roman Catholicism .
