Artemis to Actaeon and More is a collection of poetry by Edith Wharton, expanding her 1909 collection with additional, thematically related works. This volume includes a series of poems that explore themes of love, nature, myth, and the passage of time. Wharton's lyrical and evocative style is evident throughout the collection, reflecting her deep understanding of human emotions and classical mythology. One of the standout poems in the collection is the title poem, "Artemis to Actaeon", which reinterprets the Greek myth of the hunter Actaeon, who is transformed into a stag and killed by his own hounds after glimpsing the goddess Artemis bathing. Through this and other poems, Wharton delves into the complexities of desire, transformation, and the often tragic consequences of human actions.
