I think that the more interesting question is why hope was in the box. Is it truly to ease the horrors she unleased, or is hope just another kind of horror keeping us from taking different actions?
@logos1.6182 жыл бұрын
Well, ελπις (elpis = hope) was in the same class of evils things in the box/jar. The question of why it wasn't released is quite an important one. You second hypothesis about hope being a kind of horror, I agree with. For hope ultimately makes one passive, there is no need to work for 'fire' or 'the arts.' Pandora's Box was a gift, humans are given problems to deal with and learn from, without hope compromising the pursuit of learning and action.
@haydenchan70602 жыл бұрын
Why Elpis is in the box-well, it’s not just to ease the horrors she unleashed. Hope remained in the jar because hope will never abandon humans. We will always have hope even in the darkest times, even when Zeus’ mini horror army is wreaking havoc on the world. That is the true reason why Elpis remained in the box, which is actually a pithos, a jar.

in the ORIGINAL MYTH, Hope was supposed to be the greatest ill of all, because it gives humanity the delusion that they can affect change upon the world to lessen suffering, when in reality that ability was supposedly only the purview of the gods.

I disagree. Like you mentioned, the gods themselves were subject to Fate.

I'd it's not quite a delusion, but a rejection of a life without meaning due to Fate.

Pandora's box serves as a reminder of the importance of mindfulness and the need to think things carefully before doing an action. The story highlights the balance between hope and despair in life. On my opinion curiosity can be both a blessing and a potential source of trouble. On the other hand curiosity drives innovation, creativity, and personal growth. Curiosity motivates us to explore, learn, and understand the world around us, however, unchecked curiosity can lead to unexpected consequences and danger, as I've seen in the story of Pandora's box. The story suggest extreme consequences on tempering with the unknown, but Pandora's burning curiosity also suggest the duality that lies in the heart of human inquiry… The story will always remind us that, although bad things are happening around us, there is still beauty left the world and the only thing that we need is ourselves to help it to find.

So she opened the box out of her internally given curiosity’s for released these disgraces out into the world.

It's said that hope is the most horrendous of all evils in the box as all other evils play with the body and the mind but hope deceives the soul and forlongs its suffering . Hope cause humans to hold onto this world and wait eternally for the better times that never come Or else I am just a edge lord
@ynkrock75 жыл бұрын
The Greeks did not believe in a happy afterlife, quite the opposite. If anything, their hope was rooted in finding beauty and meaning in spite of their suffering. When Odysseus found Achilles in the underworld, all Achilles hoped for was one more day on Earth, even as a poor farmer. He regretted his choice of choosing immortality through his heroics versus living a life full of inherent suffering.

However this is not the full story of Pandora, you’re missing why Pandora was created and why Zevs gave her the box, leaving out the duality of hope as Zevs didn't place it there as a blessing but as hope is what makes life worth living despite all the sorrows in belief of a better time, hence making it the blessing of fortitude and the curse of self-torment

Some fun facts I've heard about this story: -Pandora was a gift from Zeus to Epimethius. -The box was a gift to Pandora on her and Epi’s wedding day. -Zeus made Pandora as a punishment, giving her the box knowing she would open it. Pandora was created to bring the punishment of mankind (Death, Disease, Greed, Sorrow, etc.) for accepting the gift of fire from Prometheus. Pandora opening the box was all a part of Zeus’s plans for revenge on man. Zeus always gets his way and his honor. Correction: Zeus didn’t create Pandora he ordered her creation from Hephaestus (the God of Forge), who was also ordered to chain Prometheus.

Great video! However, from all of our orginal Greek sources, it's Pandora's Pithos, a type of Greek jar, not a box. Pandora's Box is a mistranslation. Secondly, this plan was devised by the gods as a way to hurt mankind and blame it on Epimetheus, Prometheus's brother, as another way to further punish Prometheus for gifting fire to mankind, and to punish mankind for receiving it. This version of the story could possible exist, but it is very unlikely, and contains many modern additions. The Greek Gods were not viewed as benevolent, but merely reflections of reality. Ted-ed's versions of these myths are not accurate reflections of the greco-roman mythos, but they have animations so thats cool.

Hope - a feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen. I can see why it needed to be locked away. Depending on the perspective and understanding of the individual it'll provide an infinite energy of will power to persevere and overcome any/all obstacles in that pursuit. Whether the goal and means to achieve are harmful is a non-factor since hope for your better future is all you need to push onward. Not too mention its powerful synergies with hate, love, despair, peace, and many others. Sucks there wasn't a god to teach mankind how to properly care for ones own hope, raise, manage it and not allow it to disappear or overwhelm us.
