Greek Mythology

Today I'm very happy to have this opportunity to show you our presentation.

Greek Mythology is a group of traditional tales told by the ancient Greeks. It talks about the deeds of gods, heroes and their relations with human beings.

Greek Mythology is not just a literary works; it is also a production of culture of that time and an exhibition of the social surroundings and problems of the current western countries. If we want to know western culture, we need to read this book. It is a summary about gods and heroes story of the ancient Greek nation. It mixed up the real life with the fantasies.

After reading the book Greek Mythology, I'm sure everybody is interested in the goddess in this fantastic masterpiece, so I will share with you some of our ideas.

Juno was the principal wife of Jupiter, and, as queen of heaven, participated in the honors paid to Jupiter. Juno appears to be the sublime embodiment of strict, matronly and virtue, and is on that account the protectress of purity and married women.

Faultless herself in her fidelity as a wife, she is essentially the type of the sanctity of the marriage tie. So strongly was she imbued with this hatred of any immorality, that, finding herself so often called upon to punish the failings of both gods and men in this respect, she became jealous, harsh, and vindictive.

She seemed to be hard-hearted to those gods who were sent many blessings by Jupiter. Latona was just a typical example. Juno changed herself into fierce and dreadful forms to frighten Latona and her children - Apollo and Diana to run from the beautiful garden which Jupiter had found for her. Then she followed and tormented Latona in many ways such as sent wild animals to howl horribly behind her when Latona grew tired and to rest. Juno also changed Callisto into a great furry bear when she found that Jupiter was so pleased with Callisto?s charm and goodness.

Her exalted position as the wife of the supreme deity, combined with her extreme beauty, caused her to become exceedingly vain, and she consequently resented with great severity any infringement on her rights as queen of heaven, or any apparent slight on her personal appearance. Juno…s character was just like a jealous and manipulative woman in our daily life.

Venus was appointed goddess of Love and Marriage.She represented sex, affection and the attraction that binds people together. With the help of her little son,Eros,the god of love,she made many a tale of happiness and sadness in the life of gods and men.Though Venus was regarded as the symbol of extreme beauty, she still showed a human-like emotion.

Venus was much vexed by Psyche who was a princess famous of her beauty. Although her little son Eros - - the god of love fell in love with Psyche. Venus tried every method to break them up. Obviously, Venus was jealous of Psyche?s beauty. In another story, Venus made Pygmalion…s (a sculptor) dream come true, only because she was delighted with the loveliness of Pygmalion?s statue which looked much like herself.

Venus spent all her life in the pursuit of love, but her enthusiasm for love is temporary. What?s more, she isn?t single-minded in love. Venus created a personality image with strong vanity and beautiful appearance. She stressed the women's instinct to pay more attention to the appearance. And these points made Venus more act like human beings.

Besides Juno and Venus, Greek Mythology has also showed how other goddesses dealt with love. Selene, the moon-goddess, made the young shepherd Endymion sleep forever to keep his mortals everlasting youth and beauty. Daphne, the daughter of the river god, asked her father to help her when Apollo, the great sun-god, kept on following her. She finally became a laurel tree to avoid being caught by Apollo. The result proved that love can not be a unilateral thing whether for humans or for gods.

Moreover, Greek Mythology gives people a warning to take notice of their behavior. Arachne was a woman who used to spin all day long. Because of her arrogance and lack of gratitude, her teacher Minerva, the patron goddess of spinning and weaving, turned her into the “Spinner”, which is now called spider.

In Greek mythology, the goddesses are different from those in ancient Chinese mythology. They have the same emotion like human beings. So the Greek mythology was not only a classical literary, but also a great reference for us. It is an important part of the ancient culture which has vast and deep influence on the whole western culture. We can learn not only interesting things but encyclopedic information from it.

Well, we have found that a great number of words and idioms in the English language come from Greek mythology. As the end of our presentation, l et?s have a look at these vocabularies which derive from Greek mythology.

Some English words have its roots in the go ds? names in Greek mythology, for example:

Flora is the Greek goddess of flowers. Her husband Zephyr gave her a garden. In spring, they walk arm in arm in the garden where all flowers bloom together. Cognate words: floral(花的,植物的), florist(种花人), flourish(繁荣,茂盛)。

Pan is the Greek god of mountain. He has a body like humans?, but he also has sheep?s feet with horns on the head. He likes wandering in the mountains. People were very fear with his strange voice and scared face. Pan as the root is the equivalent of fear. So “panic”means “frightened”.

Psyche was a princess who was known far and wide for her beauty. Venus was jealous of her beauty. While her little son Eros, the god of love fell in love with Psyche. Venus finally failed to break them up. Later Psyche became the incarnate of humans? spirits. Psyche as the root is the equivalent of soul and spirit. Cognate words: psychoanalyst(精神分析家);psychology(心理学).

Greek Mythology?s great influence upon the English language and literature is beyond description. In short, the story of Greek mythology behind the many hidden truths and wisdom, it is necessary for us to taste slowly, slowly digested

今天我很高兴有这个机会向您展示我们的演示。

希腊神话传说中的古希腊人。它谈论神的事迹,英雄和与人类的关系。

希腊神话不仅是文学作品;它也是一种生产,文化和对当前西方国家的社会环境和问题展。如果我们想了解西方文化,我们需要读这本书。这是一个概括的神和英雄的古希腊民族的故事。它混合了现实生活与幻想。

看完后,希腊神话,我肯定大家都在这美妙的杰作在女神感兴趣,所以我将与你们分享我们的一些想法。

朱诺是朱皮特,主的妻子,为天后,参加了支付给朱皮特的荣誉。朱诺似乎是严格的崇高体现,主妇和美德,是该帐户的保护者的纯度和已婚妇女。

无自己的忠诚作为一个妻子,她基本上是神圣的婚姻关系的类型。如此强烈,她充满这仇恨任何不道德的行为,即,发现自己经常呼吁惩罚上帝和人类在这方面的失败,她非常嫉妒,苛刻的,恶意的。

她似乎很狠心的神的人被送祝福的朱皮特。拉托那仅仅是一个典型的例子。朱诺把自己变成凶猛可怕的形式来吓唬拉托娜和她的孩子——阿波罗和戴安娜,使他们离开了漂亮的花园,朱诺已经找到她。然后她接着折磨拉托娜在许多方面,如把野生动物拼命嚎叫在她当拉多娜累了,休息。朱诺也改变了克里斯托变成了一只毛茸茸的熊的时候,她发现朱皮特对于克里斯托的魅力和善良很高兴。

她的崇高作为最高神的妻子的地位,加上她极端的美,使她成为非常虚荣,她因此有很大程度的任何侵犯她的权利为天后,或任何明显的轻微的对她外表的。朱诺的性格就像是我们日常生活中的嫉妒和操控的女人。

维纳斯被任命为爱情和婚姻的女神。她代表性,情感和结合的人在一起的吸引力。在她的小儿子,爱神的帮助,神的爱,她在神和人的生活使很多故事的快乐和悲伤。虽然维纳斯作为美的象征,她仍然表现出类似人类的情感。

维纳斯是很烦恼的心灵是一位著名的她美丽的公主。虽然她的儿子爱神爱上了塞姬。维纳斯想尽方法要拆散他们。显然,维纳斯嫉妒塞姬的美貌。在另一个故事,维纳斯使皮格马利翁(雕塑家)梦想成真的,只是因为她喜欢皮格马利翁的雕像,看起来很像自己的可爱。

维纳斯花了她一生都在追求爱情,但是她的热情,爱是暂时的。与此同时,她对爱情不专一。维纳斯创造人格形象具有很强的虚荣心和漂亮的外表。她强调女性的本能;注重外表。这些点使维纳斯更像人类。

除了朱诺和维纳斯,希腊神话中也展示了如何处理其他女神的爱。塞勒涅,月之女神,让年轻的牧羊人恩底弥翁沉睡让他的人永恒的青春与美丽。达芙妮,河神的女儿,请求她的父亲

帮助她,当阿波罗,伟大的太阳神,一直在跟踪她。最后她变成了一棵月桂树以避免被抓的阿波罗。结果表明,爱不是单方面的事情无论是人或神。

此外,希腊神话中给人们注意自己的行为的警告。阿拉喀涅是谁用自旋一整天的女人。因为她的傲慢和缺乏感激之心,她的老师米勒娃,纺纱和织造的守护神,使她成了“spinner”,现在被称为蜘蛛。

在希腊神话中,女神不同于中国古代神话。他们有相同的情感像人类。因此,希腊神话不仅是一个古典文学,而且对我们有很大的参考价值。它有着广泛而深刻的影响了整个西方文化的古代文化的重要组成部分。我们不仅可以学习的有趣的事情,但它百科信息。

好的,我们已经发现,在英语语言来自希腊神话中的单词和习语大量。为我们演讲的结束,让我们在这些词汇来自希腊神话中一看。

有些英文字在古希腊神话中的神的名字有它的根,例如:

植物是希腊女神的鲜花。她丈夫和她一个花园。在春天,他们手挽着手走在花园里,百花齐放。同源词:(花的,植物的),(种花人),(繁荣蓬勃发展,茂盛)。

潘是希腊神话中的山。他有一个身体像人类,但他也有羊的脚,头上的角。他喜欢在山里。人们都很担心他的奇怪的声音和害怕的表情。潘为根是恐惧的等效。所以“恐慌”的意思是“害怕”。

塞姬是一位公主,是远近闻名的美貌。维纳斯是嫉妒她的美貌。而她的小儿子爱神,神的爱爱上了塞姬。维纳斯最后未能打破了他们。后来塞姬成为人类精神的体现。塞姬等效于灵魂和精神的根源。同源词:(精神分析家);(心理学)。

希腊神话中最伟大的对英语语言和文学的影响是难以描述的。总之,希腊神话背后隐藏的许多真理和智慧的故事,它是我们去慢慢品味,慢慢消化

谢谢你的倾听!

常见英语词汇背后的希腊神话故事

常见英语词汇背后的希腊神话故事 1.The Heel of Achilles 亦作The Achilles' Heel唯一弱点;薄弱环节;要害 The Heel of Achilles直译是“阿基里斯的脚踵”,是个在欧洲广泛流行的国际性成语。它源自荷马史诗Iliad中的希腊神话故事。阿基里斯是希腊联军里最英勇善战的骁将,也是荷马史诗Iliad里的主要人物之一。传说他是希腊密耳弥多涅斯人的国王珀琉斯和海神的女儿西蒂斯所生的儿子。阿基里斯瓜瓜坠地以后,母亲想使儿子健壮永生,把他放在火里锻炼,又捏着他的脚踵倒浸在冥河(Styx)圣水里浸泡。因此阿基里斯浑身象钢筋铁骨,刀枪不入,只有脚踵部位被母亲的手捏住,没有沾到冥河圣水,成为他的唯一要害。在特洛伊战争中,阿基里斯骁勇无敌,所向披靡,杀死了特洛伊主将,著名英雄赫克托耳(Hector),而特洛伊的任何武器都无法伤害他的身躯。后来,太阳神阿波罗(Apollo)把阿基里斯的弱点告诉了特洛伊王子帕里斯,阿基里斯终于被帕里斯诱到城门口,用暗箭射中他的脚踵,负伤而死。因此,the heel of Achilles,也称the Achilles' heel,常用以表示a weak point in something that is otherwise without fault;the weakest spot等意思。 2.Helen of Troy 直译"特洛伊的海伦",源自源自荷马史诗Iliad中的希腊神话故事。 Helen是希腊的绝世佳人,美艳无比,嫁给希腊南部邦城斯巴达国王墨涅俄斯(Menelaus)为妻。后来,特洛伊王子帕里斯奉命出事希腊,在斯巴达国王那里做客,他在爱与美之神阿芙罗狄蒂的帮助下,趁着墨涅俄斯外出之际,诱走海伦,还带走了很多财宝。此事激起了希腊各部族的公愤,墨涅俄斯发誓说,宁死也要夺回海轮,报仇雪恨。为此,在希腊各城邦英雄的赞助下,调集十万大军和1180条战船,组成了希腊联军,公推墨涅俄斯的哥哥阿枷门农(Agamemnon)为联军统帅,浩浩荡荡,跨海东征,攻打特洛伊城,企图用武力夺回海轮。双方大战10年,死伤无数,许多英雄战死在沙场。甚至连奥林匹斯山的众神也分成2个阵营,有些支持希腊人,有些帮助特洛伊人,,彼此展开了一场持久的恶斗。最后希腊联军采用足智多谋的奥德修斯(Odusseus)的“木马计”,里应外合才攻陷了特洛伊。希腊人进城后,大肆杀戮,帕里斯王子也被杀死,特洛伊的妇女、儿童全部沦为奴隶。特洛伊城被掠夺一空,烧成了一片灰烬。战争结实后,希腊将士带着大量战利品回到希腊,墨涅俄斯抢回了美貌的海伦重返故土。这就是特洛伊战争的起因和结局。正是由于海轮,使特洛伊遭到毁灭的悲剧,真所谓“倾国倾城”,由此产生了Helen of Troy这个成语。 3.The Trojan Horse木马计;暗藏的危险;奸细 The Trojan Horse直译"特洛伊木马",是个国际性成语,在世界各主要语言中都有。来自拉丁语equns Trojanus.这个成语甚至还进入到汉语词汇中,**同志在《矛盾论》中,谈到《水浒传》中宋江三打祝家庄时,就用了“木马计”这个典故。这个成语出自荷马史诗《奥德赛》。希腊人和特洛伊人交战10年之久,胜负未决。最后,希腊著名的英雄奥德修斯(Odusseus)想出了一个木马计,用木头做了一匹巨马,放在特洛伊城外。全体希腊将士伪装撤退,乘船隐藏在附近的海湾里,而

古希腊神话故事大全集故事精选_古代希腊神话故事 在希腊神话传说中,天神宙斯为公主勒达的美貌所吸引,但怕生性嫉妒的神后赫拉愤怒,并且若以自己的形象出现很难诱动这纯洁的少女。于是,他便想出一条诡计,变形为 一只天鹅。一天,勒达正在一个小岛上游玩,忽见从白云间飞下一只天鹅,它是那样美丽 可爱,毫不怕人,任凭勒达抚摸和搂抱,它的羽毛洁白,身体柔软,勒达爱不释手,心中 充满陶醉与兴奋,不知不觉竟抱着天鹅进入了梦乡。她醒来时,天鹅恋恋不舍地离开了她,展开强壮的双翅飞向天空。勒达回到王宫后身体感到不舒服,不久发现竟怀孕了。等到十 月怀胎期满,生下一对孪生子。就是后来成为双子星座的希腊英雄卡斯托尔和波吕丢克斯。后来,勒达遵从父王之命,嫁给了斯巴达国王廷达瑞俄斯为妻,又生了两个女儿,一个叫 吕克涅斯特拉,嫁给了特洛伊战争中希腊人的最高统帅阿伽门农;一个叫海伦,嫁给了阿 伽门农的弟弟墨涅拉俄斯。宙斯回到天庭后,非常高兴,为纪念这次罗曼史,就把他化身 的天鹅留在了天上,成为天鹅星座。 活捉厄律曼托斯野猪,把它完好地带回迈肯尼,交给国王欧律斯透斯。这头野猪是用 来献祭给女神阿耳忒弥斯的圣物,可是它在厄律曼托斯一带糟蹋庄稼,危害甚大。 赫拉克勒斯在前往厄律曼托斯的途中,来到西勒诺斯的儿子福罗斯的家中,半人半马 的福罗斯是肯陶洛斯人,他热情地端出一盆烤肉招待客人,自己则吃生的。赫拉克勒斯希 望用美酒伴佳肴,福罗斯听后笑着说:“尊贵的客人,在我的地下室里有一桶酒,它属于 我们全体肯陶洛斯人。我不敢把它打开,因为我知道我们半人半马的肯陶洛斯人并不慷慨。”“打开吧,”赫拉克勒斯说,“我答应你,保护你不受他们的攻击。我现在真是口 渴难忍!” 原来,这桶酒是酒神巴克科斯亲自送给一个马人,即肯陶洛斯人的,并吩咐他不能提 前打开,直到第四代马人后,赫拉克勒斯到来时才能打开。于是,福罗斯走到地下室。他 刚把酒桶打开,马人们闻到一股扑鼻的酒香,都蜂拥而来,手拿石块或木棒,把福罗斯的 地下室团团围住。赫拉克勒斯拿起火棒把第一批肯陶洛斯人打回去,又射箭追击余下的人,一直追到伯罗奔尼撒半岛东南角的玛勒河,那是赫拉克勒斯的老朋友喀戎居住的地方。肯 陶洛斯人纷纷投奔喀戎。赫拉克勒斯朝他们射去一箭,箭头擦过一个肯陶洛斯人的手臂, 射中喀戎的膝盖,这时他才发现他射中了幼时的好朋友。他从朋友的膝盖上拔下箭,然后 又用精通医道的喀戎自己调制的药膏敷在伤口上。但因为箭已浸过许德拉的毒血,伤口是 无法医治的。喀戎吩咐他的弟兄把他抬回洞穴,希望能够死在朋友的怀里。可惜这个愿望 也是空妄的,因为他忘掉自己是不死的,他的伤痛也将永远忍受。赫拉克勒斯含泪告别了 喀戎,答应不管花多大的代价,也要请死神满足老朋友的愿望,让他解脱痛苦。我们知道,他实现了自己的诺言。 赫拉克勒斯重新回到福罗斯那里,他看到这位朋友已经死了。原来他从一个肯陶洛斯 死者的身上拔出一支箭,不禁惊叹这支短箭竟有如此大的力量,能杀死一条生命。他顺手

源于希腊神话的英文单词

精心整理西方文化有两个源头:一为希腊(Hellenic)文化,一为希伯莱(Hebrew)文化,而希腊文化中的希腊神话(Greekmythology)对英语影响非常广泛。表现在词汇方面就是英语吸收了部分词汇并将之沿用,而这些词又或是可分解词或是可溯源词。这些词源包含的信息不仅可帮助读者准确理解每个词的词义,增添记忆单词的乐趣,还能特别记录、描述英语与古希腊文化的差异和交流,具有很高的历史性和趣味性。由于罗马神话深受希腊神话的影响,故事情节与希腊神话大同小异,只不过人名不同,所以希腊神话时常和罗马神话联系在一起。希腊罗马神话就像神话故事中的灵泉,滋养着英语的词汇,产生了 还是Cupid,成天无所事事,在天上飞来飞去练习射箭,搞得大家人心惶惶。 所以他们衍生出的单词都含贬义:erotic色情的;cupidity贪心,贪婪。 中国是matchmaker媒婆 10、Hygeia:希腊健康女神,其形象为年轻女子,身着白色长衣(白大褂),头戴祭司冠,用饭碗喂着一条蛇。衍生词:hygiene(n卫生学)。 11、Morpheus:希腊神话中的梦神。梦神是睡神Hypnos的儿子,掌管人们的梦境。衍生词:morphine(吗啡),marijuana(大麻),两者都是opium(鸦片)的提取物。morphine有麻醉镇 定的作用。 12.Chaos:开天辟地的混沌之神<反>cosmos:宇宙,有序的整体

13.Zeus主神宙斯 14.Pluto冥界之神,阴间之神;因为具有“冥河之宝藏”而似的“-pluto”作为词根表示”财富”;eg:plutocracy财阀统治;plutolatry拜金主义pluto冥王星 15.Styx环绕冥土四周的冥河,阴河;styxstygian冥河的,阴间的;黑洞洞的;幽暗的16.Lethe忘川,冥府河流名,饮其水则会忘记过去;忘却,遗忘 lethargic昏昏欲睡的<>stimulate 冥界三河:Styx冥河/Lethe忘川河/Meader河 abyss地狱深渊 abysmal深的。深渊的 17.Poseidon海洋之神,海王 eristic争 )siren , ) Chimerical空想的,幻想中的;异想天开的,不可能的 31.Iris(为诸神报信的)彩虹女神 iridescent彩虹色的,灿烂光辉的 32.Zephyr西风之神;西风的拟人化用语;和风,轻风,微风;轻罗,细纱 33.Academy柏拉图学派;某个科学领域内的权威定论机构 34.Stoic斯多葛学派哲学(公元前4世纪由哲学家Zeno创立于雅典);禁欲主义35.Peripateticism逍遥学派(由古希腊哲学家亚里士多德在学园内漫步讲学而得此名) peripatetic逍遥学派的,走来走去的 二源于希腊神话的英语习语 1、Pandora’sbox(潘朵拉的盒子):普罗米修斯(Prometheus)为人类盗来了天火,激怒了宙斯(Zeus)。Zeus 决定惩罚人类,于是他命令火神造出一个美貌的女人Pandora,

古希腊神话小故事【三篇】

古希腊神话小故事【三篇】 导读:本文古希腊神话小故事【三篇】,仅供参考,如果觉得很不错,欢迎点评和分享。 欧罗巴【篇一】 阿革诺耳国王的女儿,美丽的公主欧罗巴,在一个深夜里,天神给了她一个奇异的梦。好像两块大陆———一块是亚细亚;一块是亚细亚对面的大陆———变成了两个妇女模样。一个是当地人打扮,一个是外乡人打扮。她俩为抢夺她而互相斗争着。当地的妇女说她哺育了她;外乡妇女则用强有力的手将她抱在怀里,并将她带走,说命运女神指定她将作为宙斯的情人。 欧罗巴醒来,只觉面孔发烧,她不知道这梦是吉兆还是凶兆。 清晨,阳光灿烂,欧罗巴暂时忘掉了她的梦,和女伴们一起来到海边开放着许多花朵的草地。女伴们兴高采烈地分散在草地四周,采撷着美丽的鲜花。欧罗巴也挎着一只金花篮,在草地上跑着,采摘她心爱的花朵。她采到了一枝特大的火焰一般的红玫瑰。 众神之父宙斯被爱神阿佛洛狄忒的金箭射中,为年轻美丽的欧罗巴而神魂颠倒。他隐去神的真形,化成了一条牡牛。这样,既可骗取年轻姑娘的柔情,也可能躲避神后赫拉愤怒的妒火。 牡牛来到欧罗巴的面前。它长得是那样美丽,像人工雕琢的双角,金黄色的身体,前额中闪烁着一个新月形的银色标记,亮蓝的眼睛里闪耀着柔和的光,显得十分温驯。欧罗巴很喜爱这条牛,她温柔地抚

摸着它的背,给它拭去嘴上的泡沫,然后吻了一下它的前额。这是牡牛快乐地鸣叫一声,在欧罗巴的脚边卧了下来,昂着头,望着她,向她展示它那宽大的脊背。 欧罗巴喊着她的伙伴们:“快过来呀,姑娘们!让我们骑到这只美丽牡牛的背上玩吧。我保证,我们都可以坐得下。看,这牛是多么温顺,多么可爱呀!我相信它和人类一样有颗善良的心,只是不会说话罢了。” 说着她灵巧地跨上了牛背,她的同伴们则踌躇害怕,不敢上前。 牡牛得到了它的意中人,立即从地上跃起,起初是缓缓地走着,当到了大海边的时候,立即跃身向大海奔去。欧罗巴吓得大声喊叫,向她的伙伴们伸出手来,但她的同伴们已够不着她了。 牡牛四蹄轻巧地踏在海面上,不沾一滴水,像骏马在柔软的草原上奔驰。欧罗巴害怕得双手紧握着它的角,怯怯地说道:“神牛啊,你要把我带到什么地方去?大海是鱼类的运动场,不是牛行的航道。你用脚在上面走,你一定是一位神明,因为你的行事,只有神才能做到。” 那牡牛答道:“不要害怕,姑娘。我是奥林匹斯山众神。出于对你的爱,我才变成了牛身,在海中这样奔波。不久,将有一块新的陆地收容你。我们的新房也将安在那里。” 不久,欧罗巴故乡的陆地渐渐消失,太阳开始西沉,天黑下来。夜晚,只有星光和浪花与她作伴。 第二天,牡牛还在海上*。晚上,他们到达了一块远方的新陆地。

After reading the book Greek Mythology, I'm sure everybody is interested in the goddess in this fantastic masterpiece, so I will share with you some of our ideas. Juno was the principal wife of Jupiter, and, as queen of heaven, participated in the honors paid to Jupiter. Juno appears to be the sublime embodiment of strict, matronly and virtue, and is on that account the protectress of purity and married women. Faultless herself in her fidelity as a wife, she is essentially the type of the sanctity of the marriage tie. So strongly was she imbued with this hatred of any immorality, that, finding herself so often called upon to punish the failings of both gods and men in this respect, she became jealous, harsh, and vindictive. She seemed to be hard-hearted to those gods who were sent many blessings by Jupiter. Latona was just a typical example. Juno changed herself into fierce and dreadful forms to frighten Latona and her children - Apollo and Diana to run from the beautiful garden which Jupiter had found for her. Then she followed and tormented Latona in many ways such as sent wild animals to howl horribly behind her when Latona grew tired and to rest. Juno also changed Callisto into a great furry bear when she found that Jupiter was so pleased with Callisto?s charm and goodness. Her exalted position as the wife of the supreme deity, combined with her extreme beauty, caused her to become exceedingly vain, and she consequently resented with great severity any infringement on her rights as queen of heaven, or any apparent slight on her personal appearance. Juno…s character was just like a jealous and manipulative woman in our daily life. Venus was appointed goddess of Love and Marriage.She represented sex, affection and the attraction that binds people together. With the help of her little son,Eros,the god of love,she made many a tale of happiness and sadness in the life of gods and men.Though Venus was regarded as the symbol of extreme beauty, she still showed a human-like emotion. Venus was much vexed by Psyche who was a princess famous of her beauty. Although her little son Eros - - the god of love fell in love with Psyche. Venus tried every method to break them up. Obviously, Venus was jealous of Psyche?s beauty. In another story, Venus made Pygmalion…s (a sculptor) dream come true, only because she was delighted with the loveliness of Pygmalion?s statue which looked much like herself. Venus spent all her life in the pursuit of love, but her enthusiasm for love is temporary. What?s more, she isn?t single-minded in love. Venus created a personality image with strong vanity and beautiful appearance. She stressed the women's instinct to pay more attention to the appearance. And these points made Venus more act like human beings.

古希腊神话故事的读书笔记2000字

古希腊神话故事的读书笔记2000字 《希腊神话》讲述了神的故事和英雄传说两个部分,神的故事涉及宇宙和人类的起源、神的产生等内容,希腊神话主要是歌颂英雄的事迹,同时也深深地揭露和批判了人性的丑恶。下面是小编精心为您整理的古希腊神话故事的读书笔记,希望您喜欢! 古希腊神话故事的读书笔记 着名学者罗素曾经说过:希腊文化、基督教和工业文明是西方文明的三大支柱。的确,古希腊文明一直被世人视为是西方文明的摇篮。古希腊神话与传说,一直与《圣经》一样,是西方文学创作的不竭源泉,古希腊的城邦制、民主制度等政治上的首创,影响着文艺复兴以来西方的政治改革等,而它遗留至今的各种艺术及艺术品,是人类历史上最为璀璨的明珠之一。任何要了解西方文明的人都无法不先去了解一下古希腊文明。 正因为如此,本学期我选择了学习古希腊历史与文化这门课程。古希腊凭着地理上的优越地位,广泛吸收周边的伟大文明的精粹,同时也因为希腊岛上的陆地地理因素,分别发展成一个个的城邦,人民耕种,城邦间或通过海路不断经商,岛上一片繁荣兴旺,同时随经济发展起来的是独特而且丰蕴的文明。而这个学期的课程,给我留下最深刻印象和我最感兴趣的内容便是希腊人的文化生活。除了在政治上的众多超前举措外,其实,古希腊人各种的文化生活来得更丰富精彩,更吸引我的注意。例如,当课上讲到荷马时,我会想起他那两部杰出

的史诗。我想,荷马游走于希腊城邦的街头,年年岁岁吸收着其他民间艺人的故事,再加上自己的经历,才能写出《伊里亚特》和《奥德赛》,特别是《奥德赛》。另外,希腊留给世界最大的财富之一戏剧,也令人遐想翩翩。以往读书所知,戏剧起源于古希腊。但上完课后才有了进一步的了解。古希腊人在对狄奥尼索斯的崇拜中产生了戏剧,狄奥尼索斯是古希腊神话里代表酒和丰腴的神,希腊人对他的崇拜以及产生的一切仪式活动都是为了祈祷来年丰收的。接而产生了悲剧表演、喜剧和戏剧节。听课和看资料的过程中,我脑海不断地在幻想当时的情景,在那宏伟瑰丽的戏剧场上,篝火四起,座无虚席,观众们聚精会神看着台上的表演,演员们戴着面具在台上忘我地表演。 然后我又想起小时候,我还比较走运地看到我国一些比较传统的民间艺术表演。以前每年中的某个时节,具体是什么时候我已经忘记了,广州的文化公园都会有一些类似西方嘉年华那样的文化游行,到处是欢乐的气氛,穿着各色民间服饰和传统打扮的艺人穿梭在人群中。最吸引我的就是踩高跷的人了,他们双脚踩着那高高的木棍子前行,上身又不断地摇摇晃晃,看上去好像快要摔倒在地的样子,而我即使被爸爸高举过头顶,仍比他们矮很多。但这类游行已经没有了,高跷先生除了在看外国的旅游节目时偶尔会看到,在广州似乎也没有出现过了。还有,以前看杂技表演,经常有一个节目是一个小孩蜷缩进一个很小的木桶或箱子,现在的杂技表演中已经看不到了。从小时候开始,每逢吃饭的时候,一家人总是边吃边专心地听电台里的小说连播,当时的电台在每天中午十二点到一点,傍晚六点到七点,没有几个不

Zeus decided to send her down to men as a present.So Hermes the messenger brought her to Epimetheus,brother of Prometheus.The greatness of her beauty touched the hearts of all who looked upon her,and Epimetheus happily received her into his house.He had quite forgotten Prometheus' warning:never to accept anything from Zeus.The couple lived a happy life for some

古希腊神话故事五篇-著名神话故事 神话故事是远古时代的人民所创造的反映自然界、人与自然的关系以及社会形态的具有高度幻想性的故事。下面就是小编给大家带来的神话故事,希望能帮助到大家!神话故事1厄洛斯是爱神,它的拉丁名称丘比特更为人熟知。他是阿瑞斯和阿芙罗狄蒂的儿子,是一位小奥林波斯山神。他的形象是一个裸体的小男孩,有一对闪闪发光的翅膀。他带着弓箭漫游。他恶作剧地射出令人震颤的神箭,唤起爱的激情。给自然界带来生机,授予万物繁衍的潜力。这位可爱而又淘气的小精灵有两种神箭:加快感情产生的金头神箭和中止感情的铅头神箭。另外,他还有一束照亮心灵的火炬。尽管有时他被蒙着眼睛,但没有任何人或神,包括宙斯在内,能逃避他的恶作剧。有一次这位淘气的精灵被自己的箭射中。对人间少女普赛克炽热的爱在他心中复苏,以致于他不顾他母亲的干预,鼓起勇气让宙斯给予公正评判。厄洛斯起了重大作用的另一个的故事是亚尔古英雄的远征。美狄亚,国王埃厄忒斯的女儿,被厄洛斯的神箭射中,和伊阿宋一齐寻觅金羊毛,最后成为这位英雄的妻子。神话故事2相传,女娲补天,用的是五色神石,不小心落在地上,变成了一座石峰,渐渐地升高长大,成了远近闻名的关东大山———长白山。这一天,王母娘娘的七个女儿,脚踩祥云来到了人间,落在长白山上。她们游山逛景,天快黑才走了。姐妹七人回到天宫,向王母禀报了人间情景。第二天,王母摆驾来到南天门,往下一看,果然美景如画,她笑着对女儿们说:“你们看,那群峰环抱,形状像银盆的地方,倒是个洗澡净身的好地方。”大女儿说:“可惜没有水啊!”王母一笑说:“这山谷是个宝地,要能引来天上的水,这池水就能与天同寿,与地同存了。”说完,她拔下金簪,只轻轻地一拨,天河的水便滚滚流下来,不一会儿,就灌满了深谷,出现了天池。从这时起,天池成了仙女们净身戏耍的地方。有一天,七位仙女又来到天池洗澡。正好,行云布雨的黑龙和白龙路过这里,它们看见仙女们在天池里洗澡,看入了迷,竟忘了按时返回天宫交旨。玉皇大帝怪罪下来,派降龙大将,来抓黑白二龙问罪。黑白二龙只好如实招认。玉帝一听,唤回女儿,再也不准女儿们去天池洗澡,又把黑白二龙贬下凡间,锁在天池里,让它们苦度饥寒。不知过了多少年,一天,棒槌仙子手捧金钵,钵里装着人参籽,来到长白山播籽种参。她把参粒撒在长白山上,一群棒槌鸟含着参籽飞向四面八方。从这儿,长白山有了棒槌鸟,人参也在山上扎了根。棒槌仙子撒完参籽路过天池,就听黑白二龙连声叹息,她急忙落下彩云,问二龙为何长叹。二龙告诉她,它俩是因违犯天条被贬下凡,“好心的仙子,你替我们在玉帝面前说个情,放我们回天宫吧。”棒槌仙子回到天宫,奏请玉帝。玉帝掐指一算,已过八千个年头,照一万年还少两千年。太白金星在一旁奏道:“长白山上种下宝参,何不让黑白二龙去侍弄。”玉皇大帝听太白金星说得有理,就立刻命令黑白二龙,在长白山下各豁出一条大江,以养育山上的人参。黑白二龙领命,就在长白山下喷云吐雾,开山掘岭。它们整整干了三年,黑龙豁出两条江,一条图们江,一条鸭绿江;白龙豁出一条弯弯曲曲、沟汊纵横的松花江。这松花江两岸全是黄色石头,江底是一色的黑石铺底,结结实实,老百姓都说它是“铜帮铁底”松花江。神话故事3弥达斯是伊达山大女神和一位姓名不详的英雄的儿子。他是马其顿勃洛弥恩的好寻欢作乐的国王。他统治勃里癸亚人民,种植闻名遐迩的玫瑰花。一天,狄俄尼索斯酒神和追随者从色雷斯出发去维奥蒂亚。狄俄尼索斯以前的老师森林之神老西勒诺斯不巧跟队伍走散了。他喝得醉醺醺的,躺在弥达斯的花园里酣然大睡。园丁发现了他,把他捆起来领去见弥达斯。他给弥达斯讲述有关大洋河彼岸的、与连成一片的欧罗巴、亚细亚或阿非利加完全脱离的一个大洲的奇妙的故事。大洲上座落着神奇的城市,居住着身材高大、幸福而长寿的人民,拥有值得赞颂的法律制度。西勒诺斯的故事使弥达斯听得欣喜若狂。他盛情款待老山神五天五夜,然后派向导护送他回到狄俄尼索斯的大本营。狄俄尼索斯一向在为西勒诺斯担心。此刻,他派人问弥达斯有什么要求,他就应怎样报答他。弥达斯毫不迟疑地回答说,“请恩准使我摸到的一切都变成金子。”然而,变成金子的不仅仅仅是石块、花朵和屋内的陈设。他坐下吃饭时,他吃的食物和喝的水也都变成金
