  • The Apple Of Discord
  • Thestruggle began when Eris [AIR-is], goddess of discord and quarreling, was notinvited to the wedding of the hero Peleus [PEE-lee-uhs] and the sea-nymphThetis [THEE-tis]. Eris threw among the revelers a golden apple inscribed “forthe fairest.” It rolled right up to where three goddesses were sitting: Hera[HEE-ruh], Athena [uh-THEEN-uh], and Aphrodite [afroh-DIE-tee].
  • The most beautiful woman in the world, Helen of Sparta, was the daughter of Zeus and Princess Leda [LEE-duh]. Of course, every prince in Greece wanted to marry her. Her mother’s new husband, King Tyndareus [tin-DAR-ee-uhs] of Sparta, had to choose among the suitors. He was afraid that whoever he chose would have to fight for Helen against all the rest. To prevent this, he made them all take an oath that they would accept his decision and support the cause of Helen’s husband if any wrong were committed against him because of this marriage.

  • The Death Of Petroclus and The Rousing Of Achilles
  • One evening Achilles waited by his tent for his friend Patroclus [PATroh-kluhs] to come back from the day’s fighting. He had loaned Patroclus his armor. But when he saw Antilochus[an-tee-LO-kuhs] running toward him, tears running down his face, he knew something was terribly wrong. “Bad news, oh, badnews!” cried Antilochus. “Patroclus is slain; Hector has his armor.” Down in the sea caves his mother, Thetis [THEE-tis], heard his lament and came up to comfort him. He told her that if he could not avenge his comrade he was no longer worthy to live among men. “Remember,” she said,“you are fated to die after Hector.” “I care not,” he replied. “I did not help my friend when he needed me. I will slay his destroyer. Then I can accept my own death without remorse.”
  • The Death of Hector and The Ransoming of His Body
  • Athena brought Achilles a fresh spear.Hector, drawing his sword, the only weapon he had, rushed his foe. It was no contest. Achilles wore armor, wrought by a god, which could not be pierced.Hector wore the armor he had taken from Patroclus that had once belonged to Achilles. The Greek champion knew of a small open spot in the neck of that armor. He drove his spear point into Hector’s throat. Falling and dying, the Trojan hero begged that his body be returned to his parents. But Achilles stead fastly refused, and the valiant soul of Hector took flight for Hades. Most of the gods, watching from above, were shocked and appalled by Achilles’ refusal to return Hector’s body to his family. Zeus was especially displeased. He sentIris [I-ris], his rainbow-messenger, to poor, old Priam to tell this tragic king of Troy that he must ransom and redeem the body of his son.
  • It had been made as an offering to Athena, he toldthem. It had been made big so that the Trojans would find it hard to take itinto the city. The Greeks hoped the Trojans would destroy it, bringing down thewrath of Athena upon them. But if somehow it could be taken into the city, itwould win the favor of the goddess. They dragged thehorse to the gate and even knocked down part of the wall to give it more room.Once they had set it up inside they went on their way, feasting and rejoicing,feeling both exhilaration and exhaustion after ten years of war and siege. At midnight, as the city slept, Odysseus andthe other chiefs crept out of the horse and dropped down into the street. Theythrew the gates open wide; the Greek army waiting outside rushed in. They litfires. They stationed small bands of warriors by each house
