Leucothoé
''Leucothoé'' is a 1756 dramatic poem by the Irish playwright Isaac Bickerstaff. It was Bickerstaff's first published work. The plot was based on the story of the Greek Goddess Leucothea. ''Leucothoé'' was originally intended to be a pastoral opera but Bickerstaff was unable to secure a composer to set it to music. In May 1756 it was published by Robert Dodsley at the price of 1 shilling and sixpence. In a contemporary review in the ''Monthly Review'', critic Ralph Griffiths generally praised the work, although he criticised the tragic ending, as "the laws of the Opera require a happy ending".Tasch p.29 While well received by the limited critics who reviewed it, the work was largely ignored both by critics and the public. This failure led Bickerstaff to rejoin the military, although he went on to have a string of successes between 1760 and 1772 often in collaboration with the composer Thomas Arne Thomas Augustine Arne (; 12 March 17105 March 1778) was an English composer.

''Leucothoe'' is a 1883 poem in Latin by Giovanni Pascoli, rediscovered and published in 2012. The work takes the form of a mythological and erotic epyllion of 144 verses. Editorial history Pascoli composed the poem in 1883 when, in financial difficulties, he heard about the Certamen poeticum Hoeufftianum, a prize awarded annually by the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences in Amsterdam. He sent the composition, however, without knowing the rules of the competition, nor did he include his name, so he received no news from the academy and the work was lost in the Dutch archives. In 2012, the philologist Vincenzo Fera tracked down the poem at the Noord-Hollands Archief in Haarlem, finding the original text in its entirety, on three sheets of paper handwritten by the author, and published it in December 2012. Title The name of the protagonist, Leucothoe, does not seem to draw so much from Ovid's Leucothoe as from the myth of the goddess Leucothea. Contents Leucothoe is ...
