源于希腊神话的英文单词

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。

Echo的故事

Echo的故事

Echo(回声)的故事。

ECHO 是希腊神话里的最动人的传说之一。

Echo(拉丁文)(Greek Mythology A nymph(年轻女神,少女) whose unrequited ((formal) (of love) not returned by the person that you love无报答的, 不受报酬影响)love for Narcissus caused her to pine away until nothing but her voice remained) 是古希腊神话传说最美丽的女性之一,赫利孔山森林女神,地神盖娅之女,赫拉的侍从。

Echo美丽,善良,聪明绝顶,是众神心中的情人,而这位可爱的女神,却只钟情于Narcissus, 英俊潇洒,风度翩翩,以至于必须用漂亮才能形容他那张脸。

Echo有很多爱慕者,其中就包括众神的主宰宙斯。

宙斯非常滥情,喜好追逐美丽的女性。

宙斯的妻子天后赫拉的嫉妒心极强,当她知道了以后,竟迁怒于Echo。

于是,赫拉夺去了Echo的声音,让Echo无法说话,只能重复别人所讲的最后三个字。

Narcissus(Greek Mythology A young man who pined away in love for his own image in a pool of water and was transformed into the flower that bears his name.),河神Cephissus与林间仙女Liriope的儿子。

他的出生伴随着一个来自先知Tiresias的奇特预言。

预言说,如果纳西索斯想要长命百岁,那么他就决不能见到自己的影像。

于是,带着这样一个预言,Narcissus渐渐长大,成为全希腊最俊美的男子。

无数的少女对他一见倾心,可他却无情地拒绝了所有的人。

可是,有一天,Echo在森林里见到Narcissus,被他吸引,一见钟情。

阅读积累 ▏《希腊神话故事》内容简介+精彩片段+读后感

《希腊神话故事》读后感《希腊神话故事》描述的是一个神秘的、充满奇幻色彩的英雄世界。

在这个世界里,虽然神的力量占据着统治地位,但不同类型的英雄们仍然通过自己的努力,用勇气、美德、智慧等反抗着天意。

其中,俄狄浦斯、阿喀琉斯、赫拉克勒斯三位英雄给我留下了很深的印象。

俄狄浦斯一生与命运抗争,得知神谕”弑父娶母”的预言后,善良的俄狄浦斯走上了自我放逐的道路,并发誓永远不再回来,以避悲剧的发生。

他在底比斯凭借自己的聪明破解了斯芬克斯的谜题,拯救了成千上万的普通民众,当上了底比斯的国王。

虽然最后没能逃脱神谕的悲剧,但得知真相后的俄狄浦斯,勇敢承认自己的罪孽,让出王位,还刺瞎了自己的双眼以示惩戒。

他在无可逆转的命运面前表现出的勇敢正直、敢于承担责任的举动,让他完全当得起英雄的称号。

阿喀琉斯展现的是一个性情复杂而深刻的英雄形象。

虽有神谕说他年纪轻轻就会战死沙场,但他还是毫不犹豫地走上了同特洛伊人战斗的战场,勇敢承担起保家卫国的责任。

在战场上,他攻城略地,建立无数功勋。

当挚友被赫克托尔杀死后,重视友情的他重上战场,尽管在对待赫克托尔尸体一事上他表现出了凶残的一面,但面对泪流满面的老国王普里阿摩斯,他又流出温厚良的本性。

赫拉克勒斯也是希腊神话中著名的英雄之一。

他神勇无比、力大无穷,完成了十二项被称为”不可能完成”的任务。

除此之外,他还解救了补的普罗米修斯,隐藏身份参加了伊阿宋的英雄冒险队并协助他取得金羊毛。

他是唯一一个通过自己的功劳死后成为神的英雄,体现了古希腊人对英雄的感念和崇敬。

在奥林匹斯的诸多男神女神中,我最喜欢的就是智慧女神雅典娜了。

她是希腊神话中最重要的神之一,有着明亮的双眸和婀娜的体态。

雅典娜是宙斯的女儿,拥有同他父亲一般强大的力量,她坚毅、具有阳刚之气,不同于其他女神,所以她又是胜利女神。

雅典娜很受希腊人民的喜爱,人们对雅典娜抱有崇高的敬意。

在希腊,奥运会的终点设在帕提神庙,就是为了以奥运火炬传递来祭祀雅典娜。

希腊神话简介你(英汉对照)

希腊神话(希腊语:ελληνικμυθολογα)即口头或文字上一切有关古希腊人的神、英雄、自然和宇宙历史的神话。

原始氏族社会的精神产物,欧洲最早的文学形式。

大约产生于公元前8世纪以前,它在希腊原始初民长期口头相传的基础上形成基本规模,后来在《荷马史诗》和赫西俄德的《神普》及古希腊的诗歌、戏剧、历史、哲学等著作中记录下来,后人将它们整理成现在的古希腊神话故事,分为神的故事和英雄传说两部分。

希腊神话或传说大多来源于古希腊文学,包括如《荷马史诗》中的《伊利亚特》和《奥德赛》,(Ηζοδο)的《工作与时日》和《神谱》,奥维德的《变形记》等经典作品,以及、索福克勒斯(Σοφοκλ)和欧里庇得斯的戏剧。

神话谈到诸神与世界的起源、诸神争夺最高地位及最后由宙斯胜利的斗争、诸神的爱情与争吵、神的冒险与力量对凡世的影响,包括与暴风或季节等自然现象和崇拜地点与仪式的关系。

希腊神话和传说中最有名的故事有特洛伊战争、奥德修斯的游历、伊阿宋(Ιζονα)寻找金羊毛、海格力斯(Ηρακλ)(即赫拉克勒斯)的功绩、忒修斯(Θηζα)的冒险和俄狄浦斯(Οιδπου)的悲剧。

Brief introduction of Greek mythology:They’re mythologies about Greek’s God, hero, nature and universe history. They’re the spirit production of primitive society and the earliest literature form of Europe. Before 8 BC, they’re known by Oral transmission. Then, some people(such as Homer and Hesiod赫西俄德) collected them and divided them into two sections--------God stories and hero legends. Most of Greek mythologies came from Greek literature, including Iliad and Odyssey of Homer's Epic, Hesiod’s Theogony (《神谱》)and Aeschylus’( 埃斯库罗斯) and E uripides’ (欧里庇得斯)dramas. The most famous Greek mythologies are Trojan War, Odysseus's travel(奥德修斯的游历) and Oedipus tragedy (俄狄浦斯的悲剧)..希腊神话源于古老的爱琴文明,和中国商周文明略有相像之处。

《Greek mythology》《希腊神话》分析读后感

《Greek mythology》《希腊神话》分析读后感

《Greek mythology》《希腊神话》读后感希腊神话是一个引人入胜的主题,几个世纪以来一直吸引着人们的想象力。

众神和英雄的故事、史诗般的战斗和悲惨的爱情故事已经代代相传,今天继续激励和娱乐我们。

在本文中,我将探索一些最著名的神话及其在希腊文化内外的意义。

希腊神话的中心是神和女神,他们是控制自然世界并影响人类事务的强大生物。

十二位奥林匹亚诸神是最重要的,在整个古希腊世界都受到崇拜。

宙斯是众神之王,是天空和雷霆的统治者。

波塞冬是海洋、地震和马的神。

哈迪斯是冥界之神,德米特是农业和收获女神。

阿波罗是音乐、预言和治愈之神,而他的双胞胎妹妹阿耳忒弥斯是狩猎和分娩的女神。

雅典娜是智慧、战争和手工艺的女神,阿芙罗狄蒂是爱和美丽的女神。

Hephaestus是火和金属加工之神,Hermes是商业、旅行和小偷之神。

最后,阿瑞斯是战争和暴力之神。

每个神和女神都有自己的个性、符号和神话。

例如,德米特和珀尔塞福涅的神话解释了不断变化的季节和生与死的循环。

Demeter对Hades绑架她的女儿Persephone的悲伤和愤怒导致了冬天的创造,而她与Persephone的团聚带来了春天。

阿波罗和达芙妮的神话讲述了上帝对若虫达芙妮的单相爱的故事,达芙妮为了逃避他的进步,他被变成了一棵月桂树。

这个神话解释了月桂花环的起源,月桂花环是胜利和成就的象征。

希腊神话中也充满了英雄和女英雄,他们表演了非凡的壮举,克服了看似不可能的障碍。

这些英雄通常是半神半人,他们的故事充满了冒险、浪漫和悲剧。

最著名的英雄之一是赫拉克勒斯,在罗马神话中被称为赫拉克勒斯。

赫拉克勒斯是宙斯的儿子,也是一个凡人的女人,他做了十二次劳动,作为杀害自己家人的惩罚。

这些劳动包括杀死尼米亚狮子,捕获Erymanthian野猪,以及清理Augiean马厩。

赫拉克勒斯的故事显示了面对逆境时力量、勇气和毅力的重要性。

另一位著名的英雄是忒修斯,他击败了牛头怪,成为雅典国王。

简易英语读物《希腊神话-Greek Mythology》-29. Daedalus and Icarus

简易英语读物《希腊神话-Greek Mythology》-(29)Daedalus and IcarusLong and long ago in ancient Greece, there lived a famous inventor named Daedalus. Daedalus had invented many machines with many uses.Some of his machines were so amazing that many people felt they were magic. Since he was famous throughout the country, many kings and rich men would invited him to come to their land and invent wonderful things to help them with many tasks. On the visit to the island of Crete, the king of the island, king Minos ask Daedalus to build a war machine that would help him to kill his hated enemiesDaedalus was not interested in war and refused to help the king.This angered King Minos greatly, and he ordered that Daedalus to be locked in a high tower that faced the sea until he agreed to what the king had asked.Daedalus spent a few months in the tower before he was able to escape.His son named Icarus, stole a key from god, and opened the heavy door to the tower. Daedalus and Icarus ran quickly to the beach and tried to find a ship that would take them back to Greece.But they failed because King Minos had ordered that all the ships being carefully searched before leaving the island of Crete,Both Daedalus and Icarus were caught and put in the tower together.Though he was caught, Daedalus had strong spirit and felt sure that they could find a way to escape.He thought of invent something to help them to escape, but unfortunately there not many materials in the tower for him to use.After thinking for a long time, he said to his son.“The king may control the land and sea, yet he does not control the sky.”“Therefore my son we must escape from the sky”Daedalus then told his son to collect all bird feathers that he could find.Each day the two men would take some of their food, and leaved them on the opening of the windows.When birds came to eat it, they would pull some their feathers off.Daedalus also began to save all the candles that they were given each nightAfter many months, Daedalus and Icarus had saved a lot of feathers and candles, and the adventures began to work.Daedalus melt the candle wax and made it into a shape of wing, then he added the bird’s feather until they had built two paired of wings big enough for him and his son.One pair was large and heavy, big enough for Daedalus; the other pair was small and fast perfectly for Icarus.When Daedalus had finished the wings, he put them on his back, he began move his arm up and down until Icarus surprised, began to fly around the room.Icarus looked upon on his father and in amazement, “I want to fly too”, he cried.Daedalus stopped flying and put the smaller wings onto his son.His son wings though smaller, were built far better and more beautiful than his own.Daedalus was proud to give the wings to his son he loved so much.The next day was lovely and clear, Daedalus decided it was good time to teach his son how to fly so that they could make their escape.He told Icarus to watch the birds and to fly just like they did.“You must not move your wings too slowly, or too quickly andYou must follow the wind. ”Icarus put on his wings and jumps out of the windows of the towerHe then flew up high into the air, dived down low above the sea.He was like a child with a new toy.Daedalus was worried as he watched his son; he knew that the wings were not a toy that one can just play with.He called down his son and Icarus to return to him.“Son”, he said seriously,” it is a time for us to escape this islan d and returned to Greece.”“As we fly, you must stay close to me always, never fly faraway”If you fly too low, your wings would become wet from fog, if you too high, the wax of wing will melt from sun.Icarus smiled and promised his father that he would stay close and be careful.So Daedalus and Icarus jump out of the tower window and flew high above the land.The people of Crete looked up in amazementMany people thought they were watching god flying in the sky.Occasionally Daedalus would turn round to see if his son was still followed him closely.For the first hour, Icarus was always just behind his father, however a little while later; Daedalus looked back and saw Icarus was not there.Daedalus looked around with great wariness in his heart, and saw Icarus flying high in the sky.A moment early Icarus had seen two eagles flying above him, and became so excited that he decided to follow them.When Icarus felt cool wind move through his hair, he became even more excited. And became to fly faster and faster which made him go higher and higherDaedalus yelled at his son, “stop, you are going too high, your wings will melt.”But Icarus was too far away to hear his father; he continued to fly faster and faster, higher and higher and became more and more excited.Daedalus tried to follow Icarus but his wings were much heavier.As hard as he tried, he could not reach his son.The sun began to melt Ic arus’s wings and feathers slowed began to fall off. Daedalus noticed the wings falling into pieces and tried to scream to his son again. But his son still was too far to hear, Icarus kept flying quickly towards the sun, and his heart became more and more excited.Soon all the feathers had fallen from Icarus’s wings and the boy fell down towards the deep sea.When Daedalus saw his son falling, he flew as fast as he could to catch him. Unfortunately Daedalus was not fast enough and arrived just a moment too late to save his son.The boy hit the water with loud terrible noise.Before Icarus could sink, Daedalus reached into the water and grasped his son’s leg. Then he pulled his son out of sea and held him closely into his arms.Sadly, it was too late; Icarus had died when he hit the water.Daedalus looked down at sea and saw the feather of his son’s wings floating at the top of water.He carried his son’s body to a small island, buried it and named the island Icaria in his son’ memory.Daedalus then putted down his wings for one last time and flew back to Greece.In Greece, he built a temple to the flying god Apollo and hang up the wings as a promised never to fly again.译文与注释代达罗斯和伊卡洛斯很久,很久以前, 在古希腊,住着一个著名发明家-代达罗斯。

著名希腊神话故事中小学生课外阅读分享

著名希腊神话故事中小学生课外阅读分享希腊神话(希腊语:Ελληνικήμυθολογία、英语:Greek mythology),即一切有关古希腊人的神、英雄、自然和宇宙历史的神话。

希腊神话是原始氏族社会的精神产物,欧洲最早的文学形式。

接下来小编给大家分享两篇关于希腊神话里面的故事吧。

驴耳朵国王弥达斯(一) 点金术弥达斯是佛律癸亚的国王,他非常富有,拥有世界上最美的玫瑰花园。

一天,酒神狄俄尼索斯的老师———老山神西勒诺斯,在伴随酒神漫游时,喝得醉醺醺的迷了路,误撞入弥达斯的玫瑰园。

看守的园丁将他捆绑起来带到弥达斯面前。

弥达斯非但未责怪他,反而为他松绑,好酒好菜款待十天后,又把他送回给狄俄尼索斯。

狄俄尼索斯很感激弥达斯对他老师的厚意。

他请弥达斯提出一个真心的要求,无论要求什么都能得到满足。

弥达斯便请求赐给个点金术,让他所触及到的一切东西都变成黄金。

狄俄尼索斯答应了。

弥达斯满心欢喜地回到宫中,进入花园,他急于想知道酒神赐给的礼物是否灵验,便摸了摸花叶,叶子立即失去水分,变成了冷冰冰的黄金。

他抚摸一朵玫瑰花,玫瑰花立即退去红色,变成黄色,成了沉甸甸的金子。

他又双手在花园的树枝上、石凳上、假山上、小径上……凡是他能触到的地方都摸一下,整座花园即刻变成金灿灿的黄多花园。

弥达斯高兴得狂笑起来。

现在,他是世界上拥有黄金最多的国王了。

弥达斯累了,他回到室内,在一把椅子上坐下,椅子立即变成又硬又冷的黄金。

他想在床上躺一躺,床和被褥便都成了硬邦邦的金子,他想吃一点东西,叫仆人端来美酒佳肴。

他端起酒杯刚想送入口中,酒和酒杯都变成了金子。

他拿起一块面色,面包也变成了金子。

弥达斯急得大叫:“快给我拿别的食物来,快去!” 他气得狠狠推搡着仆人,仆人停在原地不动,变成了黄的人。

弥达斯惊骇了。

他瞪大眼睛惶恐地看着周围,除了闪闪发光的金子外,什么东西都不见了。

他又饥又渴,快饿死了,却什么东西也吃不上,喝不上。

现在,他后悔了,绝望地躺在冰冷而坚硬的黄金地上哭泣着,哀告着:“狄俄尼索斯,可怜可怜我,救救我!收回你的礼物吧!我不要它了。
