==Last paragraph makes no sense==.
Entire page makes no sense.
- Well, I've removed two-thirds of what makes no sense, then. I have taken the section about Homeridae, who may or may not have been rhapsodes, and turned a long-established redlink blue. I will now edit that page (unless someone has got there before me). I have taken the section about how "Homer" performed his poems (since "Homer" does not use the word rhapsode) to a new page Aoidos, since "Homer" and contemporaries do use that word.
- Whether what remains now makes any sense, others can judge (and by all means improve it!) Andrew Dalby 13:55, 5 July 2006 (UTC) [reply ]
I find a problem in the article, since the article speaks about the rhapsodes as performers, which they undoubtedly were; but says nothing about any rôle that they might have had as explicators of the texts that they performed. The whole point of Plato's Ion is that Ion should be knowledgeable about all poets, not just about Homer, if he in fact is working from knowledge rather than from inspiration, & capable of discussing what each poet says, since they all poetize about the same topics. Did the rhapsodes also explicate texts as well as perform them? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Panydalampassa (talk • contribs) 04:38, 24 March 2009 (UTC) [reply ]
Rhapsodes still exist in Albania
[edit ]The classical greek works are not the only ones that used to be sang by rhapsodes. Even today in Albania there are rhapsodes that sing on lahute "Muji and Halili" songs or "Gjergj Elez Alia songs". The article is limited to greek classical music and it will have to change to reflect that.sulmues (talk • contribs) --Sulmues 15:05, 6 January 2010 (UTC) [reply ]
