|"Summon the great masters of either kind of  poetry-  Epicharmus, the prince of Comedy, and Homer of Tragedy", ''Theaetetus'', by Plato, section §152e<ref>[https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0171%3Atext%3DTheaet.%3Asection%3D152e ''Theaetetus'',  by Plato, section §152e.]</ref>  (translation by [[Benjamin Jowett]]<ref>[http://classics.mit.edu/Plato/theatu.html  ''Theaetetus'',  by Plato, section §152e, translation by Benjamin Jowett]</ref>). There is some variability in translation of the passage. Words like "king", "chief",  "leader", "master" are used in the place of "prince" in different translations. The basic Greek word in Plato is ἄκροι ''akroi'' from ἄκρος ''akros'' meaning topmost or high up. In this context it means "of a degree highest of its kind" or "consummate" (cf. Liddell & Scott, ''A Greek–English Lexicon'').<ref>[https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/morph?l=a%29%2Fkroi&la=greek&can=a%29%2Fkroi0&prior=oi(&d=Perseus:text:1999.01.0171:text=Theaet.:section=152e&i=1#lexicon "ἄκρος" entry in Liddell & Scott, ''A Greek–English Lexicon'']</ref>|name="Plato1"}}
