About
In Plato's Ion Socrates discusses with the titular character, a professional rhapsody who also lectures on Homer, the question of whether the rhapsody, a performer of poetry, gives his performance on account, of his skill and knowledge or by virtue of divine possession. It is one of the shortest of Plato's dialogues.
