Athena in Mysticism and Mythology. Part 3. Sculpture

Whether it be a long-standing Greek tvir - it’s a test to call out divinely to a specific form. Trying to work on sculpture in the Olympic Games, the sculptor did the least thing about the portrait likeness - he created the ideal image of a person. And the robot over the statue of the deity was a special mystery. The sculpture was brought to Delphi for the urochist ceremony of consecration, but before it the priests turned to the deity with nourishment, why should the statue reach the age of youma, why should you infuse your divine power into it? And as the signs spoke of the divine year, the statue was placed before the temple.

The most famous Greek temple sculptures were not spared. We can judge its beauty and its greatness only for copies and for descriptions. For example, there are about two hundred copies (so do not take the image on the coins to respect) Athena Parthenos - the head statue in the Acropolis of Athens. Truthfully, it is impossible to convey all those things that the person thought, as if they spied on them. That one, before that, had not been honored with such an honor.

Statue of Athena (so-called "Pireyska Athena").
bronze. 340-330 rr. to the sound e.

The statue of the bula was found in the numerically smaller ones in 1959. in Piraeus, on the crossroads of the streets of George and Filona in the class room. -ti ne-da-le-ku from the ancient harbor. The sculpture-tour was attached to the city in the city of Sul-li in 86 r. BC e.

With the soul of the great artistic activity of the period of rozkvitu, Ellady bouv Fidiy (bl. 488-432 pp.), a friend of Perikles, who helped to soften both in architecture and in plasticity the severity of the form, which transformed it into a temple and at one hour graceful beauty. The colossal chrysoelephantine statues of the gods (made of gold and ivory tassels)

Like veneration to Pliny the Elder, on the skin detail of the sculpture, starting in front of the pedestal, on which Athena stood, and ending with sholom, there were images of mythological scenes: on the pedestal - the people of Pandori, on the shield from both sides - the battle with the Amazons and the struggle on sandals - a battle with centaurs.

Fidiy, the greatest sculptor of that hour, worked nine years on the sculpture. Only youmu could entrust the bulk of creation to the image of their heavenly patroness. There were nine rokiv of prayer, nine rokiv of total zanurennya at the robot. Today, Fidii prayed and nurtured that the Goddess-Virgin was welcome, so that she could place part of her power in the sculpture, how else would she grow, so that Athena would protect the place of that yoga of the bagmen? Adzhe for the skin Athenian was more important than the nobility, who instructed the gods to live from them. What is more necessary to look at the Acropolis and other temples, so that you can see your intercession.

Significant part of the treasury of the polis went to the creation of a group of sculptures. A ton of gold covered the wooden bones with a height of 13 meters, and the faces and hands were shattered from a good elephant brush. A two-meter statue of the goddess of victory Niki, like Athena trimala at the hands, was made to cry. Athena Parthenos was truly majestic! It is important to show what a person could do like that!

For the honor of Athena, the inhabitants ruled the saints - small Panathins, and the skin five rocks - the Great Panathens, if the most important girls carried sacrifices to the polis - specially zitkani for five rocks of robes for the goddess. Tse bula garna ceremonial process.

Fidiya and yogo scientists prepared miraculous sculptural robots that embellished the Parthenon. Many of them, the greater or lesser ones, have taken good care of them and are now staying at the British Museum. On the folded pediment stood a group that depicted the people of Paladi, on the front - a group that represented the super girl with Poseidon to the one who could intercede over Attica

Athena Varvakeion

Most of all, that authentic copy is respected by t.z. Athena Varvakion (National Museum, Athens), marmur.

The statue that stood in the center of the temple was also a sacred center. Athena Parthenos bula vikonana by Phidiem himself. Vaughn was upright and small, about 11 m high, vikonan in chrysoelephantine technique (that is, from gold and ivory tassel on a wooden base).

Sumna share of this sculpture ... But, perhaps, this place, the high mountain, was lost here, like before, the Gods live at their temples. And the days of tyranny, and after that, cannot overcome them. Perhaps, if, for the ancient Greeks, we learn to recognize their presence. Aje Acropolis with yoga temples and gods - not only a physical place.

Sculpture was not saved and seen for various copies and numerical images on coins. In one hand the goddess trims Nike, and in the other she spirals onto the shield. Amazonomachy is depicted on the shield.

It is important that on the shield of Athena among the other statues, Phidias placed himself and the image of his friend Perikles (importantly, at the sight of Daedalus, that Theseus). Before the speech, it turned out to be fatal for him - he was called in the image of a deity, they threw him at the pit, the devine laid his hands on his hands, or he died amid misery and grief. The peculiarity of the relief on the shield is that the other and third plan is shown not behind, but one above the other. In addition, this topic allows you to say that it is already a historical relief.

Athena is the goddess of wisdom, the goddess of fair war and victory, one of the most famous goddesses of Greece. Athena is the daughter of Zeus, the most powerful god on the entire Olympus, the god of the sky, thunder and glitter. Zeus is ordered by other Greek gods, has power over people, establishes a huge order, distributes good and evil to the earth. Ale, it will be fair to say that a daughter who is in love does not trespass to you not in strength, not in wisdom. In rich legends, it is described that Athena was ordered to sit on the throne by Zeus. Mother Athena is the mudra of the oceanid Metida, the first squad of Zeus.

Athena grants wisdom and knowledge, teaches people to mysticism and crafts, helping handicrafts, weaving, potters. Zi prostannyam walnut culture the wise warrior is becoming the patron of science.
The daughter of Zeus - the goddess of wisdom - was an object of worship in all ancient Greece, she sponsored poetry, sculptors and artists groaned with her. In the numerical robots of sculptors, artists and poets, the daughter of Zeus can stand in a new battlefield: some have glimmering military possessions, a gleaming sholom, in the hands of the goddess trimaє a list and a shield. Ale, with all her fighting looks, she is amazed by her supernatural beauty. She has gray-blaky eyes, rusya hair, a divine posture and a great postava.
Athena helps the heroes of Greece, give them the wisdom to take care of that ryatuє under the hour of trouble. So, the goddess of wisdom took Perseus at the slaughter of Medusa-Gorgona, as if with one look she turned everything alive on a stone. Athena provided Perseus with a medium shield, gleaming like a mirror, marveling in a vein, so as not to stare at the eyes of Medusa-Gorgoni. I zavdyaki zmіg vіdtyati їy head. One of Athena's lovers is Odysseus. Yogo goddess accompanies the protyazh of bagatar poneviryans, and as a result, she turns to the native island of Taka. Upon turning to the fatherland, the goddess transforms Odysseus into an old marriage, and by such a rite he rages, giving him the opportunity to take revenge on his falsehoods.
Athena acts as a helper to Hercules in the fight against the titans, for help in bringing out the dog of the god Hades Kerberos from Ereb. The daughter of Zeus supports the combat exploits of Diomedes. Helping Prometheus to bring fire from the forge of Hephaestus, and Jason to turn the golden fleece.
Athena is the keeper of the places, their walls and the fortress. Vaughn є zahisniceyu such places, like Troy, Athena, Sparta, Argos. On її honor named place - the capital of Greece - Athens. Panathenaic celebrations were held in the city of Athena - a celebration in honor of the goddess of wisdom, as if accompanied by musical and sports magics, a Christmas procession with tar-skips, the gift of sacrifice. Athens was consecrated to the next earth-working saint:
- holy, tied to the sprouting of bread - procharistry;
- holy ripening of fruits - callintery;
- holy zabіgannya dry - skіroforії;
- holy to the cob of stubble - plintery and others.
The sacred tree of the daughter of Zeus is the olive (olive tree), which in the Greek people won the name "tree of the valley". Skrіz companions Athena є owl and snake - symbols of wisdom.
There are a lot of legends and myths about the goddess Athena. One of the most widespread in modern literature is the myth about Athena and Arachne. Arachne is a main hanger and weave. Zayve, writing with her talent, she called out to Athena for the magic of weaving art and swindled out of shambles. Not having seen it, Arachne tried to make rahunki out of life, but Athena messed it up. At the punishment for pride, that ogidnenya to the gods, the goddess turned її into a spider, so that it hung forever and forever weaved. In translation from Greek, the word "arachne" and translated "peacock".
Repeatedly in Greek mythology, there is a description of the witches between Athena and Ares - the god of zhorstokoy, bloody war. Ale, with Athena, the goddess of victory Nike entrusted, and Athena will always appear as a helper.
In honor of the goddess of wisdom, impersonal temples and sanctuaries were built. Tse temples near the city of Athena - Erechtheion, Parthenon, Hekatompendon, the temple of Zeus and Athena. Boules of the sanctuary of Athena and other places - near the places of Argos and Delphi, on the islands of Delos and Rhodes, near Sparti. Fidієm - the greatest ancient Greek sculptor and architect - was arranging the statues "Athena Parthenos", "Athena Lemnia", "Athena Promachos", "Athena Areya". It’s a great pity that the donina didn’t save her life. Among the paintings of ancient painting dedicated to Athena are the paintings of Cleanthes "The Nation of Athena", Antiphilus "Olexander and Philip with Athena" and Famula "Athena".
Athena - infused with wisdom and beauty - and today is overwhelmed by the object of burying that muse for rich sculptors, artists and poets.

Athena is born from the head of Zeus. The goddess Athena is the daughter of Zeus in love. She appeared out of the world with an unspeakable rank. The prophets of the dol (moyri) declared to Zeus that in the new one he would take dominion over the world. І tse rob the son of the goddess of the rose of Metidi, which may not be barred to appear in the world; there will be a daughter in Metidi; offended children appear to be of supra-echo mind and strength.

Zlyakavsya Zeus i, shchob vanished dolі, forging Metid. Ale, in a deaky hour, I saw a terrible bіl head. The Thunderer was tormented for a long time, and he arrived, asking his son Hephaestus to chop off his head. That vikonav prohannya dad, and from the cut head of Zeus jumped Athena, at the top of the line, at the gleaming sholom, with the list of that shield. She stood beautiful and majestic before the gods: her eyes shone with wisdom, with unearthly beauty, destroying the image. After Zeus, Athena is the most powerful among the gods. The wisdom and strength of the father of the gods and people were instilled in him, only Zeus trusted his egidu. [The Greeks chanted Athena as the patroness of wars and heroes, places, mystics and crafts.]

Athena is one of the three goddesses of Greek mythology, who were venerated by goddesses-maidens. Vaughn was drenched in bezshlyubnosti, and for that a hero on earth could not boast of him, that Athena was his mother. Natomist Athena Parthenos (“Diva”) was chanted as their patron by all the girls of Greece, and especially the Athenians.

The center of the place Athena buv pagorb, de roztashovuvavsya Acropolis - the fort. Here were the head saints, an important place among them, having occupied the miraculous temple of Athena Divi - the Parthenon. The Parthenon was a special breed of marmoora. Maizhe was white after the vidobutka, having filled the year with a warm golden breeze of presence at the new bay. The temple of mav on the highest columns on the facades, on the front and on the other side, the seventeen columns on the other sides. Budova bula was embellished with sculptures, which depicted scenes from myths, from which the goddess took the fate. Ale, the head color of the Parthenon was the majestic statue of Athena Parthenos, which was in the middle of the robot Phidias.

Vіdkritі parts of the body - guise, neck, hands - at the statue of the boulevard were prepared from the elephant's tassel; dress, decorate it with a sholom - from gold. According to the information that was saved by the ancient authors, forty talents (more than a ton) of gold were needed to make the golden robe of Athena Parthenos.

Statue of Athena

The Goddess stood straight, at a calm, modern tract of greatness. Shea and breasts of the goddess were covered with luscious, honed snakes, with her, the enchanting skin of the goat Amalthea, as if she vied Zeus, as she served as Athena's armor, instilling zhah in the hearts of people. At the center of it was placed the head of the Gorgon Medusa, made from an elephant brush. Dovge was written off Athena was tucked down to the left shoulder. The left hand of the goddess lay on a round shield, in the center of which the head of Medusa shone with gold, sharpened with relief paintings of the battle of the Greeks with the Amazons. The inner side of the shield of the bula is painted with images of the Olympian gods, who fight against the giants. On the stretched hand, Athena trimmed the golden statue of Nike, the goddess of Peremoga, her fasting companion, a vikonan in human size. The hand spiraled onto the stand at the looking colony. On the head of Athena bov sholom, the images of the sphinx between two winged stones - Pegasus. Cі mythical monster magical symbols that protect against misfortune.

The colossal statue of Athena Parthenos was placed in the temple so that light fell on it, which poured from a special opening in the dakha. Near the temple, a gleaming gold statue celebrated a special tremor of defeat. The Greek, who came to bow down to the goddess, having crossed over into її power - and into the power of the state, the symbol and patron of that bula.

Pallas Athena (myth of ancient Greece)

Pallas Athena sees no less of her wisdom in the sight of other immortal gods, like living on Olympus. Not only for the sake of your own people, it is the best to love them in the air. Ale y tim, scho, in front of other immortals, there is no small mother. Mother in her, obviously, bula, but at one time there was no nibi. Pallas Athena was born by the father, the thunderer Zeus himself. And it turned out that way.
The great Zeus has been reigning over the world for a long time, and there is no one who could compete with him in might. Ale all the whole hour was restless on the heart of the great thunderer. Goddess Gaia handed over to youmu, who checks for you the share of the father, the great Kron.
- Like a father, I can spend power over the world, - so the wise goddess said, and it was impossible not to believe.
Constantly affirms about the mighty titan Prometheus.
- Do you think, new kings, that you will always be blessed in the world. Ale khіba I'm not bachiv, like two tyrants fell from Olympus? I'll give a damn if the third falls!
Zeus long ago, so that Prometheus revealed to you a fatal mystery, who is blue in the skin of yoga from the throne and if wine is born. Ale Prometheus spilled:
- Hai vin skіlki always throws bliskavki, make up with stingy thunders. Let the whole sky turn into white-kryl khurtovin and destroy everything, don’t break me, and I won’t say, in whose hands I can waste power!
What did Zeus lose his robit? Virishiv vin defend yourself, as you can. The goddesses of Moira's valley, as if they never had mercy, they told Zeus that the goddess of roses Metis would have two new children: a daughter, Athena, would be born on the back, and then a son, that power of supra-glossal roses. The first axis of wines, if it grows, I see Zeus's dominion over the world. Zeus is turbulent: even the goddess Metis may already be the axis-axis of the people. Having fallen asleep with її lagid words and screeched at once from an unpopular child.
And everything went as before. Benketuvav vіn and rozvazhavsya at his golden palace on the Olympi, like a raptom in a deaky hour he saw a wondrous head bіl, such that he literally cut Yogo into pieces. The name of the sin of his son, the glorious farrier of Hephaestus, and punish you:
- As a gift to me, we’ll sharpen the juice on the head and cut it її navpіl.
Feeling such a marvelous prohannya, Hephaestus asks his dad:
- You, you're welcome, you want to change, why am I in my mind? Punish me to work otherwise, whatever is necessary for you.
- I need it for you, about what I ask you, - Zeus confirms the yoma of anger, - if you don’t kill anyone at once, then you happen to know a lot of ugliness.
Vykonav Hephaestus marvelously helped his royal father, waving his sword and lowering yoga on the head of Zeus.
- What is it, - wiguknuv Hephaestus for mit. - Diva is completely overwhelmed! A heavy thing was sitting in your head, Zeus, it's not surprising that you are in a filthy mood. To wear such a great donut under the skull, dragging it from the top of the head - it’s not hot. Well, do you have a military tabir to replace your head? Oh, marvel at that, in one mile she has already become grown up, that beauty is like that! Zeus, for those who helped me to give birth to such a daughter, let me make friends with her!
- It’s impossible, my glorious Hephaestus, - the father of your father, - you won’t see the world at all, and you’ll be deprived of the eternal lady.
- It's a pity, - Hephaestus said, - if you don't mind, I'll try to get in after her.
While the stench was discussing afar the share of the newly born goddess, she already jumped out of the head of Zeus and in the joy that was born and danced light, she began to gallop and dance the Viysk dance, shaking her shield and waving a list. Glancing at his warrior daughter, Zeus forged:
- I do not mind, but I think it will not be easy for you.
Thus, Pallas Athena was born. Ale was not only famous for her military vivago, protecting all unfairly skryvdzhenikh. Vaughn was chosen by the Greek heroes, saved the fortresses and places, and for wisdom and wisdom, Zeus himself looked out for wisdom. So they called her - the goddess of wisdom and fair war. I was still small one in love with the right, in which there were no equals. Vaughn loved to weave a linen, and nothing could change it in every art. That and zmagatisya with her was not safe. Everyone knows how Arachne, the daughter of Idmon, paid the price, how she wanted to become a champion for Athena in her right.

Athena is one of the 12 head gods of the Greek pantheon. The legendary daughter of Zeus, the yak was born from yoga head. Athena is the goddess of wisdom, Viysk mysticism, the patroness of the place-power, the eponym of what is (Athens), and to teach rich sciences and crafts.
