古希臘神話故事：特洛伊戰(zhàn)爭(中英文)

　　在新婚宴會上，不和女神厄里斯拋出一只寫有“獻(xiàn)給最美麗的人”字樣的金蘋果。赫拉、阿芙羅狄蒂和雅典娜都希望得到這只金蘋果。她們被送到帕里斯那里以做出裁決。帕里斯是愛達(dá)山上的一個牧羊人，他把金蘋果判給了阿芙羅狄蒂，因為她答應(yīng)幫他得到世上最美麗女子的愛。

　　帕里斯是特洛伊國王皮安姆的兒子。他出生時，他的母親赫爾猶巴王后夢到自己手握一根燃木;因此，人們認(rèn)為帕里斯很可能會給城市帶來毀滅。一個很偶然的機(jī)會，他被遺棄在愛達(dá)山上，在那經(jīng)受了風(fēng)吹、雨淋和日曬。后來，他被那里的牧民救了下來并撫養(yǎng)成人。這次，在阿芙羅狄蒂的授意下，他下山參加在特洛伊城舉辦的集會。在那里，他是如此的出眾，國王皮安姆和王后赫爾猶巴興高采烈地接納了他，他重新成為王室家族的一員。

　　不久，他被任命為船隊首領(lǐng)，并被派往希臘。他來到斯巴達(dá)，因為阿芙羅狄蒂曾經(jīng)告訴他，當(dāng)時最美的女子——海倫就住在那兒。海倫的丈夫，墨涅勞斯國王熱情地款待了帕里斯，但他卻恩將仇報。趁著國王不在，帕里斯說服海倫與他一起私奔到特洛伊城。為了報仇雪恨，希臘人民拿起了武器，特洛伊戰(zhàn)爭爆發(fā)了。

　　當(dāng)希臘艦隊停駐在奧利斯海港時，風(fēng)向一直不順。一位先知告訴遠(yuǎn)征軍的統(tǒng)帥阿伽門農(nóng)，讓他犧牲自己的女兒伊菲革涅亞，把她獻(xiàn)給阿耳特彌斯。伊菲革涅亞被擺到了女神祭壇上。但是阿耳特彌斯在最后關(guān)頭將她帶走了，并將一只鹿放到她的位置上。阿伽門農(nóng)的妻子克呂泰涅斯特拉對丈夫的殘忍深感憤怒。

　　戰(zhàn)爭持續(xù)了十年。在這段時間里，雙方損失慘重。阿伽門農(nóng)與阿基里斯?fàn)帄Z一位俘獲的公主。暴怒之下，阿基里斯拒絕繼續(xù)參戰(zhàn)。阿基里斯的朋友，普特洛克勒斯借走了他的盔甲以扭轉(zhuǎn)戰(zhàn)局。很不幸，他死在了皮安姆的大兒子?？颂氐氖窒?。阿基里斯一心一意要為朋友報仇，他不再與阿伽門農(nóng)斗氣。披上赫斐斯塔司為他趕制的新盔甲，他出征了。他殺死了?？颂?，拖著尸體繞特洛伊城跑了三圈。但很快，阿基里斯又被帕里斯射中了腳跟，死在戰(zhàn)場上。帕里斯也沒活多久，他又被阿基里斯的朋友殺死了。由于阿基里斯遺言要把他的盔甲送給希臘最勇敢的戰(zhàn)士，在兩位得此稱號的勇士間展開了激烈的爭奪。當(dāng)盔甲最后判定應(yīng)獎給奧德修斯時，另一位勇士埃杰克斯郁郁寡歡，羞愧萬分地結(jié)束了他的生命。

　　當(dāng)仗打到第九年年底的時候，一位先知預(yù)言，只要城里的雅典娜神像在，特洛伊城就永遠(yuǎn)不會被攻陷。于是，奧德修斯就和狄俄墨得斯偽裝入城，偷偷地將神像盜了出來。隨后，希臘人精心制作了一匹龐大的木馬，一些希臘士兵藏進(jìn)了馬腹。與此同時，希臘軍隊假裝撤兵，并散布謠言：這匹馬是雅典娜送來的。信以為真的特洛伊人歡天喜地地將馬拖進(jìn)城里。夜幕降臨，隱藏的希臘士兵們躡手躡腳地從馬肚里鉆出來，使整個城市陷入一片混亂之中。特洛伊城被洗劫一空。國王皮安姆被殺，赫克猶巴王后，她的女兒卡珊德拉及兒媳安德洛瑪切都被充作了奴隸。海倫和墨涅勞斯重歸于好，到西方隱居了起來。阿伽門農(nóng)返回錫尼，卻不幸遭到自己妻子的謀殺。他的兒子殺死了自己的母親，又被憤怒女神追捕。奧德修斯歷盡艱難險阻，與大風(fēng)大浪搏擊著，直到他最終到達(dá)伊塞沙，與忠實的妻子珀涅羅珀團(tuán)聚在一起。特洛伊城的一位王子埃厄安斯幸免于難。很長一段時間，他從一個國家流浪到另一個國家。最后，他創(chuàng)建了羅馬民族。
