Titres dans Grèce

Helen of Troy has been the inspiration for writers for centuries. According to the myth, her beauty was the cause of the Trojan War that would rage on for 10 long years, a war that brought death and suffering to thousands. Because of the universal appeal of the story of Helen of Troy, differing versions of the tale can be found throughout history. From the ancient poet Homer to the dramatist Euripides, from classical academic scholars to Stephen Fry to Hollywood, Helen seems to continue to intrigue us all.

Hace miles de años, en la Antigüedad, las ayas griegas contaban a los niños historias a las que llamaban mythoi, que no se diferenciaban en esencia de las narraciones que solemos calificar como cuento y que tratan sobre sucesos extraordinarios, ya sean reales o inventados. Los mythoi tenían como protagonistas a seres divinos o semidivinos objeto de culto entre el pueblo griego. También tenían como protagonistas a héroes que podían contar con el favor, o disfavor, de esos dioses. Hoy día esas viejas historias han quedado sepultadas bajo capas de olvido.

Zwischen dem 9. und 5. Jahrhundert v. Chr. wuchs die Bevölkerung Griechenlands in ungeahntem Ausmaß, von etwa 800.000 Menschen auf bis zu 13 Millionen. Etwa eine Viertelmillion davon lebte in Athen. Die durchschnittliche Größe der städtischen Haushalte wuchs in dieser Zeit beträchtlich, eine Tatsache, die darauf hindeutet, dass Nahrungsmittel plötzlich in ausreichendem Maße zur Verfügung standen, um größere Familien viel effektiver gesund und am Leben zu erhalten als noch ein Jahrtausend zuvor.

To many in the ancient world, their gods and goddesses were all around them and could be seen daily in nature, which meant that nearly every kind of animal, both domestic and wild, was associated with a god or goddess. In places like Egypt and Greece, deities and other mythological characters were often depicted with human bodies and animal heads, and various Greek religious rituals relied on sacrificing animals. Animals were constantly involved in the core elements of Greek society and cults.

Classical Greece is a period of only 200 years, but it is filled with exciting events that shaped the political thought of modern Western civilization. In these 200 years, the idea of democracy was born and developed, although their concept of democracy was much different than in modern times. Through the development of the polis, the ancient Greek society developed into its recognizable form of those with political rights and those without them.

The Armenians were a crucial part of the army of Alexander the Great following him to the ends of the known world at that time.

Are pandemics something new? How on Earth did ancient empires and their citizens react to them? Is there a way to protect ourselves both mentally and physically against them? How do pandemics affect our social metal and religious behavior? The most objective historian of all time, Thucydides gives the answer to all these problems by describing the symptoms and the effects of the pandemic in the Ancient Athens Empire (he was also ill from the plague and got over it!).

As we explore the ancient deities from Greece (also copied and somewhat altered by the Romans), we can find many fascinating stories and dramatic characteristics in them. Aside from looking at gods like Mercury and Hades, we will also look at stories that involve Eros (or Cupid), Psyche (the origin of a lot of our words in the dictionary), and the infamous and seductive nymphs and satyrs.

In the third century BC, Stoicism arose in response to and under the influence of these older schools, combining many of the best theories from each into a more cohesive whole. With a greater flexibility and more practical application to everyday life, Stoicism quickly became a very popular school of thought, a growth made exponential by its introduction to the Romans.

Even after Greek power waned, the Romans borrowed Greek culture, so it should come as little surprise that various Greeks continued to be influential in antiquity. In fact, if people in the third century CE were asked which religious or philosophical figure from the first century CE was most likely to found or inspire a global religion that would attract millions of followers and last for centuries, they would not have answered Jesus of Nazareth.

The very first democracy in the world found its origins in Ancient Greece. The most exquisite art and architecture of the world had its origins there. While education had its roots in many cultures after the Bronze Age, education found its flowering in the rise of some of greatest literature ever written.

Die griechische Kultur und ihre Geschichte waren so einflussreich, dass sie eine bedeutende Wirkung auf uns moderne Menschen in der ganzen Welt haben.

Große Geister aus Griechenland machten unglaubliche und bedeutende Entdeckungen, wie z.B. die Wassermühle, die Grundlagen der Geometrie und die Anwendung der Medizin, um Krankheiten zu heilen.

When people think of ancient Greece, images of philosophers such as Plato or Socrates often come to mind, as do great warriors like Pericles and Alexander the Great, but hundreds of years before Athens became a city, a Greek culture flourished and spread its tentacles throughout the western Mediterranean region via trade and warfare. Scholars have termed this pre-Classical Greek culture the Mycenaean culture, which existed from about 2000-1200 BCE, when Greece, along with much of the eastern Mediterranean, was thrust into a centuries long Dark Ages.
