	May Sarton: A Poet
		Sarton continued to meet many prominent artists and writers, including H.D. (Hilda Doolittle), and Bryher (Annie Winifred Ellerman McPherson), Stephen Spender, W. Auden and the Sitwells: Dame Edith and her brothers, Osbert and Sacheverell.
		For Sarton this posed a dilemma; she celebrated the serious recognition her work was beginning to receive yet shunned the label "lesbian writer" which she felt narrowly limited the perception and focus of her work.
		Sarton had first met the Huxleys in the 1930s while visiting England and from this first meeting their relationship developed.

	Naturvetenskapernas idéhistoria : Vetenskapshistoria
		George Sarton ville skriva vetenskapens historia, det som var gemensamt för alla specialvetenskapernas utveckling.
