Stammbaum Der Griechischen Mythologie Hinweis: Es wurden ca. 2400 Namen erfaßt. Bei unterschiedlichen Interpretationen wurde die meist verbreitete Version als Vorlage angenommen. Die im Namensindex (10 Seiten) angeführten Nummern und Buchstaben geben das Tabellenblatt und jene Spalte an, in dem der Name aufzufinden ist. Die in den Tabellenblättern gelb unterlegten Namen weisen auf ein mehr als einmaliges Vorkommen hin. Im Namensindex sind diese weiteren Seiten der Tabellenblätter ersichtlich, die Abstammung ist in roter Schiftfabe. Für Apollon, Herakles, Poseidon und Zeus wurden eigene Blätter (A, H, P und Z) mit den Nachkommen erstellt. In der Schriftfarbe lila sind die ACHAIER (Landschaften in Thessalien und auf dem Peloponnes) angeführt, wobei manche die Angreifer im Trojanischen Krieg waren. In roter Schriftfarbe sind die TROJANER angeführt, einige von ihnen waren Verteidiger im Trojanischen Krieg. In grüner Schriftfarbe sind NYMPHEN angeführt, diese sind nach den vorherrschenden Über- lieferungen von Zeus und Deino gezeugt, wenn nicht anders ersichtlich. In blauer Schriftfarbe sind die männlichen FLUSSGÖTTER angeführt, diese wurden alle von Okeanos und Tethys gezeugt. In brauner Schriftfarbe sind die ARGONAUTEN angeführt, die von Iolkos (heute Volos) nach nach Kolchis aufbrachen, um das "Goldene Vließ" zu holen. Es wurden nur jene Namen erfaßt, die für den Stammbaum relevant sind.

  • Helden Am Himmel – Helden Im Himmel
    Tanja S. Scheer Helden am Himmel – Helden im Himmel Sphärenwechsel zu den Sternen im griechischen Mythos Abstract: The Catasterisms of Pseudo-Eratosthenes and the Astronomia, written by an author named Hyginus are the most important extant sources concerning ancient Greek star-myths. Analysing these texts this paper discusses questions about the reasons and circumstances that lead mythical heroes and heroines to changing the earthly sphere for the heavens in Greek myth. Which conse- quences did these changes inflict on the protagonists concerned? What did it mean to be put among the stars? The texts allowed their audience a wide range of possibilities “to think with”, including divine compassion, gratitude and eternal memory of great deeds as well as presenting warning examples for man- kind on earth. Since when these examples were told, is difficult to assess. The case of the Arkadian heroine Callisto shows how strata of mythical subjects (mythische Stoffe) changed over the centuries. The Homeric Odysseus was told of the ‘Bear’ as an important heavenly constellation, but it seems that it took some centuries before the heroine Callisto reached the sky and this bear finally got a personal name. Authors like Pseudo-Eratosthenes and Hyginus do not express the belief that such a changing of spheres included a happy afterlife or immortal feasting in the presence of the Olympic gods. Nevertheless their read- ers were at liberty to hope for it. 1 Einführung: Himmelsbilder Nachdem Galileo Galilei im Jahr 1610 die Jupitermonde entdeckt hatte, stellten sich die neuzeitlichen Gelehrten in eine lange Tradition – als Fortschreiber des griechischen Mythos.

Available online at http://classics.mit.edu//Homer/iliad.html The Iliad By Homer Translated by Samuel Butler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BOOK I Sing, O goddess, the anger of Achilles son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans. Many a brave soul did it send hurrying down to Hades, and many a hero did it yield a prey to dogs and vultures, for so were the counsels of Jove fulfilled from the day on which the son of Atreus, king of men, and great Achilles, first fell out with one another. And which of the gods was it that set them on to quarrel? It was the son of Jove and Leto; for he was angry with the king and sent a pestilence upon the host to plague the people, because the son of Atreus had dishonoured Chryses his priest. Now Chryses had come to the ships of the Achaeans to free his daughter, and had brought with him a great ransom: moreover he bore in his hand the sceptre of Apollo wreathed with a suppliant's wreath and he besought the Achaeans, but most of all the two sons of Atreus, who were their chiefs. "Sons of Atreus," he cried, "and all other Achaeans, may the gods who dwell in Olympus grant you to sack the city of Priam, and to reach your homes in safety; but free my daughter, and accept a ransom for her, in reverence to Apollo, son of Jove." On this the rest of the Achaeans with one voice were for respecting the priest and taking the ransom that he offered; but not so Agamemnon, who spoke fiercely to him and sent him roughly away.

  • Saturn As the “Sun of Night” in Ancient Near Eastern Tradition ∗
    Saturn as the “Sun of Night” in Ancient Near Eastern Tradition ∗ Marinus Anthony van der Sluijs – Seongnam (Korea) Peter James – London [This article tackles two issues in the “proto-astronomical” conception of the planet Saturn, first attested in Mesopotamia and followed by the Greeks and Hindus: the long-standing problem of Saturn’s baffling association with the Sun; and why Saturn was deemed to be “black”. After an extensive consideration of explanations offered from the 5th century to the 21st, as well as some new “thought experiments”, we suggest that Saturn’s connection with the Sun had its roots in the observations that Saturn’s course appears to be the steadiest one among the planets and that its synodic period – of all the planets – most closely resembles the length of the solar year. For the black colour attributed to Saturn we propose a solution which is partly lexical and partly observational (due to atmospheric effects). Finally, some thoughts are offered on the question why in Hellenistic times some considered the “mock sun” Phaethon of Greek myth to have been Saturn].
