==In literature== {{wikisource|Landon in The Literary Gazette 1822/Arion|Arion, a poem by L. E. L.}}[[Letitia Elizabeth Landon]]'s narrative poem ''Arion'' examines and illustrates the story of Arion's return to Greece.<ref> {{cite book|last =Landon|first=Letitia Elizabeth|title=The Improvisatrice, and Other Poems|url=https://play.google.com/books/reader?id=8t4GAAAAQAAJ&pg=GBS.PA242|section=poem|year=1824|publisher=Hurst, Robinson & Co.}}</ref> [[Alexander Pushkin]]'s 1827 ''[[: ru : Арион (стихотворение Пушкина)|Arion]]'' poem, where Arion is the sole survivor of a shipwreck after a sea storm and continues to sing the same songs with which he used to delight his shipmates, is thought to be a thinly veiled allusion to his own situation after the [[Decembrist revolt]] of 1825. [[George Eliot]]'s poem of the same name recounts Arion's murder by pirates ("sailors"), with, however, no mention of him being saved by dolphins. In [[Amor Towles]]' 2016 novel [[A Gentleman in Moscow]], the Count tells Anna the story of Arion, after tracing freckles that reminded him of a dolphin on her back.
