Plato's Ion & Meno by Plato

Plato's Ion is a philosophical dialogue written by the Greek philosopher Plato around 380 BCE. It focuses on the relationship between poetry and inspiration. In the dialogue, Socrates engages with Ion, a professional rhapsode who lectures on Homer, discussing whether the rhapsode is guided by rules of art or inspired by the poet.

Plato's Meno is another dialogue by Plato that explores the nature of virtue. It begins with Meno asking Socrates whether virtue can be taught and delves into the fundamental question of what virtue truly is. The dialogue presents a conversation between Socrates and Meno, examining the concept of virtue through various examples and discussions.

Both dialogues are foundational works in Western philosophy, offering insights into different aspects of human knowledge and morality.
