Rapsoidos: Perbedaan antara revisi

'''Rhapsode''' ({{lang-el|ῥαψῳδός, "rhapsōidos"}}) atau penggunaan di zaman modern disebut '''rhapsodist''', merujuk pada pemain atau artis profesional [[wiracarita]] [[Yunani klasik]]<ref name=EB1911>{{cite EB1911 |wstitle=Rhapsodist |volume=23 |page=231}}</ref> di abad kelima dan keempat SM (atau mungkin lebih awal). Rhapsode tidak hanya menampilkan [[epos]] karya [[Homer]]<ref name=EB1911/> seperti (''[[Iliad]]'' dan ''[[Odisseia]]''), tetapi juga [[sastra hikmat]] dan katalog puisi [[Hesiod]] serta [[satir]] karya [[Arkhilokhos|Archilochus]] atau karya lainnya. Dialog ''[[Ion (dialog)|Ion]]'' karya [[Plato]], ketika [[Socrates]] berhadapan dengan pemain bintang rhapsode, tetap menjadi sumber informasi yang paling koheren tentang para seniman ini.

 

Today we think of rhapsode as a way of taking prose and amplifying it until it reaches levels of expectation that few can understand, so in reality rhapsode is the ultimate form of prose, poem and literature and even the most talented of writers dont' usually understand that rhapsode is an art form in itself to be mastered, controlled and shared. Rhapsode is like a sympathy of instruments that is perfectly played to precision with an ultimate goal in mind. For example, here is prose that would be considered to be rhapsode.

::''The child broke down when she finally understood that she was an intellectual even though all those around her chastised her, hurt her to the point of death a multitude of times but through the years she finally understood she was rhapsode, because she was not only their superior, but she was humble, kind, forgiving and most of all a symphony of instruments that were playing in perfect harmony that no one else could hear but her, and this was her torment. While she knew what was true and right, all those around her continued harm her in the most evil of ways, and finally she broke down and no longer contributed to the good of mankind, but instead became a recluse who could have cured the most horrible diseases known to man, but instead she was too broken to contribute and so she stayed as recluse in her basement for all eternity. Her crime was letting evil control her, because evil is what man is, and control is how he empowers himself, and if one of us lets this steal their heart, then they are the ones to blame, but they cannot blame the evil because blame is weakness. The child learn early to be strong and that evil is as evil does and evil will always exist, but we all have choice, and choices are something we can own no matter what our circumstances are, we always have a choice. When the child finally understood this she broke down and cried, but her tears meant nothing to her tormentors because they only wanted to bring out her evil, but she had none to show, and so she won, and they became her victims and the broken child finally understood that she was an intellectual and no one else around her mattered because they were simply nothingness and no one but empty faces in the wind.''
