Plato's Rhapsody and Homer's Music: The Poetics of the Panathenaic Festival in Classical Athens - Hellenic Studies Series

This book examines the overall testimony of Plato as an expert about the cultural legacy of these Homeric performances. Plato's fine ear for language--in this case the technical language of high-class artisans like rhapsodes--picks up on a variety of authentic expressions that echo the talk of rhapsodes as they once practiced their art.
