Hercule et la ceinture des amazones – d’...

CHERIE FM FRANCE
About this episode

 Le poème le plus célèbre de la mythologie grecque, l’Iliade, commence par cette invocation aux Muses, déesses de la poésie : « Chante, ô Muse, la colère d’Achille ».

Mais si tu suis ce podcast, tu sais que dans la mythologie grecque, la colère est avant tout… un attribut des (insiste) Dieux. Et les plus grands héros ont eu à affronter les fureurs divines... 

Nous avons aussi entendu Aphrodite se venger d’Hippomène et Atalante. On dit que Zeus lui-même, le roi des dieux, transperçait le ciel d’éclairs et de tonnerre quand il était en colère. 

Mais c’est l’ire de sa femme, Héra, qui accabla le plus grand héros de l’Antiquité. Je veux parler d’Hercule bien sûr. 

Écoute donc l’histoire d’Hercule et des amazones…
