Vossius adapted the idea of the identity of the poet (and musician) with the sage and erudite, approving “divine poetics.” At the same time, he deduced the “furor poeticus” from its natural preconditions. “What appeared to be an attempt to unite, in the tradition of Vida and the older Scaliger, the Platonizing furor doctrine and Aristotelian preceptive poesiology, very soon turned out to be a firm renunciation of the Platonic notion of the possibility that the gift of divine mania could effect knowledge which was not mediated relative to the gods” (p. 42).
