For a multimedia bibliography of H.D.’s publications, including both dates of composition and publication, see this interactive timeline.

Screen Shot of Node Map of H.D. Correspondents
Although H.D.’s circle extends beyond the people in her files of correspondence, it is possible to map her circle of friends, acquaintances, and correspondents, based on her archives. The map below shows all of her correspondents based on the finding aids in the Beinecke, Bryn Mawr, and several other special collections libraries (Go to SpicyNodes to see it in full screen). Any overlaps with Bryher’s files of correspondence are also indicated. Click any name to expand and explore further connections. Contacts are nested under the people who introduced H.D. to them. Created by Dr. Celena E. Kusch, co-chair H.D. International Society.
James J. Conway’s Strange Flowers blog includes brief profiles of H.D., Bryher, and members of their social and literary circles. This posting also features a brief glimpse of some of those circles in a graphic format.

Hear H.D. read Helen in Egypt while scholars and poets close read selections from the poem in the podcast from Poem Talk #84 “The I as Hieroglyph: H.D., Helen in Egypt” with Julia Bloch, Dee Morris, Annette Debo, and host Al Filreis (27 Jan. 2015). This podcast offers excellent background into H.D.’s sources for the poem as well as detailed pathways for interpreting key lines and images within it. It can serve as a valuable teaching resource for classes on the modernist long poem, late modernism, feminist poetry, classics and their adaptations, and, of course, H.D. herself.
Nic Sebastian has posted the final results of a year-long voice project to “know” H.D.’s Helen in Egypt by voicing it. The result is a fully indexed and organized audio version of H.D.’s 1961 poem. This audio project is authorized by New Directions Press, and it would make a lovely complement to those teaching all or part of the poem
