About Ion
Ion is an ancient Greek tragedy by Euripides. On the subject of dating this work, no scholarly consensus exists; this is due to the fact that no certain reliable criterion that could potentially be utilised for this purpose has been found. Various possible dates have been proposed. Of these, the "dates most commonly proposed by modern scholarship are 418/7, 414/3 and 412". Central to the plot is the story of its namesake, Ion, a young and willing servant in Apollo's temple who inadvertently discovers his biological origins. Of equal import to the plot is the story of Creusa, Ion's mother, whose words and actions are heavily informed by the abuse she previously experienced at the hands of Apollo.
