with the world of man. among themselves at olympus they plotted and struggled for power.in the human world they experienced competitions and difficulties.they enjoyed earthly friendships and loves.acrowd of everlasting gods looked and acted in a perfectly human fashion that is what all gods at olympus actually were. 奥林波斯山神在马其顿和希腊东部的色萨利之间矗立着一座高山。 大雾弥漫的山顶直插云霄。山顶上,众神们的家园沐浴在阳光之中。宙斯作为山神和人类之 父主宰着那里的一切。总的说来,宙斯并不是一个独裁统治者。但毫无疑问,凡事山神们都 要听从他的命令。宙斯将男女山神12人组成一个委员会,宙斯本人则坐第一把交椅,是众 神与人类的太上皇,也是雷电的操纵者。他旁边是他那傲慢且嫉妒的皇后赫拉。波塞冬是大 海的统治者。哈得斯是主宰阴间的冥王,他在委员会中没有席位。阿波罗是太阳神、音乐和 诗神。他的孪生姐妹阿耳特弥斯是月亮和狩猎女神。雅典娜是智慧女神和家居艺术品的守护 女神。赫提斯是家室之神,象征着家庭中的生命与幸福。气势汹汹的阿瑞斯是战神。媚人的 阿芙罗狄蒂是爱与美神。火神赫菲斯托斯是宙斯雷电的创造者。以翅代步的信使海尔墨斯掌 管商业与发明事务。谷物与丰收女神得墨特尔负责管理农业,她是文明之母。以上所提到的 主要天神们都假装成凡人的样子,他们的美丽与魅力无可匹敌。因常受到凡人情感与愿望的 感染,他们不时地勃然大怒,妒嫉别人。他们卷入与人类世界无休止的争斗中。在奥林波斯, 他们之间也充满了阴谋与权力之争。在凡人的世界里,他们经历了敌对与挫折。他们珍惜人 间的爱与友善。这群长生不老的天神们的外表与行为完全符合人间的方式。这就是奥林波斯 山神们的本来面目。 [ 中英文对照] 古希腊神话故事:奥林波斯山神

the other evils.the human world was hence to experience these evils.only hope stayed within the mouth of the jar and never flew out.so men always have hope within their hearts.潘多拉偷窃天火之后,宙斯对人类的敌意与日俱增。一天,他令儿子赫菲斯托 斯用泥塑一美女像,并请众神赠予她不同的礼物。 其中,雅典娜饰之以华丽的衣裳,赫耳墨斯赠之以说谎的能力。世上的第一个女人是位 迷人女郎,因为她从每位神灵那里得到了一样对男人有害的礼物,因此宙斯称她为潘多拉 (pander:意为煽动)。宙斯决定把她作为礼物送给世间的男子。 于是信使赫耳墨斯将她带给普罗米修斯的弟弟厄庇墨透斯。她姿容绝美,见者无不为之 倾心。厄庇墨透斯兴高采烈地把她迎入屋内。普罗米修斯警告过他不得接受宙斯的任何馈赠, 而他已将之忘于脑后。这一对夫妻有过一段幸福的生活,但不久灾难却降临人间。当普罗米 修斯忙于教授人们生存之道的时候,他把一个桶托付给厄庇墨透斯。他警告过他的弟弟不要 打开桶盖。潘多拉好奇心强。她的丈夫不允许她看桶中之物,这使她感到十分懊恼。一天乘 厄庇墨透斯出门在外,她打开桶盖,从桶里跑出的是不和与战争,瘟疫与疾病,偷窃与暴力, 悲哀与忧虑,以及其他一些人类从此要遭受的不幸。只有希望被关在桶口,永远飞不出来, 因此人们常常把希望藏于心中。 [ 中英文对照] 古希腊神话故事:阿波罗 Apollo among the crowd of olympian gods

阿波罗在众多的奥林波斯山神中,主神宙斯和雷托之子阿波罗最受推崇。据希腊神话记载, 雷托被天后赫拉驱赶得四处流浪。最终是海神波塞冬怜悯她并从海中捞起提落岛让她居住。 在岛上,她生了孪生儿子阿波罗和阿尔特弥斯。阿波罗是太阳神。清晨他身着紫色袍,坐在 那明亮的东方宫殿,准备开始每日穿越天空的旅行。白天,他驾着用金子和象牙制成的战车, 给广阔无垠的大地带来光明、生命和仁爱。黄昏时分,他在遥远的西海结束了旅行,然后就 乘上金船返回东方的家中。阿波罗是音乐神和诗神。他可唤起人们倾注于圣歌中的各种情感。 在奥林波斯山上,他手拿金质里拉,用悦耳的音调指挥缪斯的合唱。当他帮助波塞冬建造特 洛伊城墙时,里拉奏出的音乐如此动听,以致石头有节奏地、自动地各就其位。有一次他接 受凡人音乐家马斯亚斯的挑战参加一次竞赛。战胜对方后,他将对手剥皮致死以惩罚他的狂 妄自大。在另外一次音乐比赛中,因输给了潘神,他就将裁判迈尔斯国王的耳朵变成了驴耳 朵。阿波罗的儿子俄耳甫斯继承了父亲这方面的才能。他的竖琴使人与动物皆受感动。阿波 罗象征着青春和男子汉的美。 金色的头发、庄重的举止、容光焕发的神态,这些足以使他受到世人的青睐。一位名叫 克里提的美丽少女迷恋于他的英俊潇洒,跪在地上,从黎明到黄昏,双手伸向太阳神。她凝 视着那辆金质马车在蔚蓝的天空驰骋。虽然她的爱并未得到回报,但她对阿波罗的痴情却从 未改变。目睹这悲哀的场面,众神深受感动,将她变成了一株向日葵。 [ 中英文对照] 古希腊神话故事:普罗米修斯 Prometheus prometheus was a titan .in the war between zeus the giants he had stood on the side of the new olympiangods.out of the clay he made the first man ,to whom athena gave soul and holy breath.prometheus spent a lot of time and energy in creating the gift of fire.and fire raised man above all animals .later,there held a joint meeting of gods and men.the meeting was to decide what part of burnt animals should begiven to gods and what to men.prometheus cut up an ox and divided it into two parts : under the skin he placed the fresh,and under the fat he put the bones,for he knew the selfish zeus loved fat. zeus saw through the trick and felt displeased at the prometheus' favor towards men.so in a masterful way he took away the gift of fire from mankind.however,prometheus managed to steal fire from heaven and secretly brought it down tomen.flying into an anger at this unjustified act of rebellion ,zeus let the other gods chain prometheus to a rock on mountain caucasus ,where a hungry eagle ever tore at his liver which ever grew again.his period of pain was to be thirty-thousand years.prometheus faced his bitter fate firmly and never lost courage before zeus.at last heracles made prometheus and zeus restore to friend ship,when heracles came over in search of the golden apple and killed the eagle and set the friend of mankind free.普罗米 修斯普罗米修斯是泰坦巨人之一。在宙斯与巨人的战争中,他站在新的奥林波斯山神一边。 他用粘土造出了第一个男人。雅典娜赋予了这个男人灵魂和神圣的生命。普罗米修斯还 花费了很多时间和精力创造了火,并将之赠予人类。火使人成为万物之灵。 在这之后,举行了第一次神与人的联席会议。这个会议将决定烧烤过的动物的哪一部分 该分给神,哪一部分该给人类。普罗米修斯切开一头牛,把它分成两部分:他把肉放在皮下, 将骨头放在肥肉下。因为他知道自私的宙斯爱吃肥肉。宙斯看穿了他的把戏。普罗米修斯偏 袒人类,这使宙斯感到不快。因此,他专横地把火从人类手中夺走。然而,普罗米修斯设法 窃走了天火,偷偷地把它带给人类。 宙斯对他这种肆无忌惮的违抗行为大发雷霆。他令其他的山神把普罗米修斯用锁链缚在 高加索山脉的一块岩石上。一只饥饿的老鹰天天来啄食他的肝脏,而他的肝脏又总是重新长 出来。他的痛苦要持续三万年。而他坚定地面对苦难,从来不在宙斯面前丧失勇气。最后, 海格立斯使普罗米修斯与宙斯恢复了他们的友谊,找到了金苹果,杀死了老鹰,因而解救了 人类的老朋友。 [ 中英文对照]

娜斯坐在御座上。慷慨的大自然满足了人类的一切要求。没有严寒酷暑。人间的不幸被拘禁 在桶中。这只桶由厄庇墨透斯保管,而潘多拉还没有出世来打开桶盖。人们生活美满,青春 永存。他们常常举行盛宴,大吃大喝,而对艰辛与悲哀一概不知。死亡的来临犹如酣睡,死 后他们变成精灵升入天堂。在白银时代,人类在体力与智力方面感觉欠佳。这种孤弱的开端 延续百年。人类在愚昧与不幸中度过了这一短暂而焦虑的成年期。他们不再崇拜天神,也不 再献祭。好在白银时代的人类并非一点美德也不具备。他们有廉耻之心,他们死后作为神灵 继续在阴间生活。在青铜时代,人类更加堕落。身着青铜盔甲,手握青铜兵器,住在青铜铸 造的房中。他们残忍无情,尚武好战,最终在无止尽的战争中消亡。死时,他们降临阴间。 最后一个时代——铁器时代,这是一个持续烦恼与悲伤的时代。没有亲人的爱,没有孝顺长 辈的责任感,没有友谊,没有礼仪,更没有信仰、真理与正义。罪恶四处蔓延,强权即公理。 战火烧焦了地球的表面。天神摒弃了人类。 [ 中英文对照] 古希腊神话故事:金色的羊毛 The Golden Fleece king athamus of northern greece had two children,phrixus

有的人,在苍翠蓊郁的小山谷中终日闲逛,他成了一位自恋狂。一天,那西塞斯 在树林中愉快地游荡。一位名叫回声的仙女一看见他就兴奋起来;她伸出爱的双 臂,高兴地走向那西塞斯。然而,令她惊愕的是,这位青年粗暴地将她推开,连 看都不看她一眼就走开了。这位可怜的仙女羞红了脸,迅速退到遮阴处,含情脉 脉地凝望着心上人。不久,那西塞斯来到一条小溪边饮水。当他跪在岸边时,他 发现清澈的溪水中有一张非常可爱的面庞。他非常激动,并对着水中的人微笑, 水中人也给了他一个微笑。他认为,一定是一位仙女爱上了他。于是,他就蹲下 去吻她,她的嘴唇也向他靠拢。但是,当他的嘴唇一接触清澈的溪水,水中那张 可爱的脸就消失了。这位恼怒的青年人此时变得绝望了,他从未被人如此鄙视过。 他日夜呆在溪边,不吃不喝,不久就死了。他从未怀疑过水中的女子只是自 己的影子罢了。众神非常怜悯他那优美的躯体,把他变成了一朵同名的花。那位 陶醉于爱河的回声亲眼目睹了这一切变化。慢慢地,她由于单相思而日渐憔悴; 最后,除了声音之外,她已经一无所有。
