How do ancient Greek teenagers play?

Ancient Greek mythology is one of the three major mythological systems in Europe. Celtic mythology is full of the struggle between invasion and anti-invasion, the complex struggle between elves and monsters, revenge and extinction, Nordic mythology is full of the cold and ruthlessness of the north, and it is believed that the world will usher in the twilight of the gods and enter the cycle of destruction, while the ancient Greek mythology on the Mediterranean side is full of sunny young hearts and becomes a great god in joy and willfulness.

One of the thoughts of wayward teenagers is that they refuse to obey authority, and young people must become great gods.

In ancient Greek mythology, Zeus was the main god. There were two generations of great gods in front of him, one was his grandfather Uranus, and the other was his father Cronus. Cronus was imagined by Greek ancestors as a god who created and destroyed time and space. Of course, creation and destruction are not calm. He overthrew his father Uranus and was cursed, saying that he would be overthrown by his own son. Here, the ancient Greeks successfully paved the way for the appearance of their favorite Zeus and found the impulse of teenagers to resist authority.

Thus began the legend of the young Zeus. His father was afraid of God's curse and tried to prevent the predicted things from happening. He can't restrain himself from having children. He had to wait for him and them to be born and swallow them all instead of destroying them. On the one hand, according to the attributes of God, they are immortal. On the other hand, the ideas of ancient Greeks are interesting. How to overthrow the old world with Zeus without his own children's genealogy? This legendary logic makes Zeus's Mount Olympus full of talents. Then Zeus was born, and his mother couldn't stand it anymore. She cheated Uranus by stealing bait and switch, and the third generation of gods successfully escaped control, and a young hero was born.

When Zeus grew up, he learned that he and his brother and sister had a life story, and with the arrangement of fate curse, they became the embodiment of justice. First, he cheated his father and spat out all his brothers and sisters. Then he rebelled against his father's tyranny together, uniting some second-generation Titan gods to stand on the top of Olympus and confront Cronus on the top of Autris. Why is he standing on the top of the mountain? Not high enough to let go of a teenager's heart! The battlefields of Celtic mythology and Nordic mythology are often ordinary deep seas, and at first glance, they are all adults. Greek teenagers like freedom in their hearts, and fighting at high altitude is exciting.

Love is an important theme of a happy life.

You can regard the Greek gods as romantic figures, but in the eyes of the ancient Greeks, love is an important theme of life. How interesting is life without love? Look at the Celtic myth and Nordic myth in Europe. Love is very light in myth, and it is too serious to fight for life and death all day. Why are northerners so upset? Experts say that life in the north is bitter and cold, and it is not easy to find food. The south has a pleasant climate, suitable for life, rich products and comfortable life. Tianshi can't waste his life while enjoying delicious food. Therefore, not only the Greek gods were affectionate, but also a legendary goddess of love was created among the great gods. Although there are gods who preside over marriage and love in other myths in the world, the shaky aesthetic feeling of the legendary story is not the same as that of it, which makes the world say that the goddess of love is directed at Aphrodite in Greek mythology, which means the desire for beautiful love. Later, it was inherited by the Romans and played into Venus, becoming the darling of European artists of all ages.
