? - 514 BCE An ancient Athenian. A beautiful young man who was loved by a middle-class citizen named Aristogeiton, but was also loved by Hipparchus, the brother of the tyrant Hippias, who feared that the brother would use his power to take him away from him. So the two men gathered together and plotted to overthrow the tyranny, which they carried out on the day of the Panathenaea in 514 BC. However, the plot failed, only defeating Hipparchus, and Harmodius was killed on the spot. This is the story told by Thucydides, and in later generations the two men were celebrated as heroes who killed the tyrant. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
?‐前514 古代アテナイの人。美青年でアリストゲイトンという中流市民に愛されていたが,同時に僭主ヒッピアスの弟ヒッパルコスにも思いを寄せられており,アリストゲイトンは僭主の弟に権力づくで彼を奪われることを恐れた。そこで二人は同志を集い,僭主政の打倒をたくらみ,前514年のパンアテナイア祭の日に決行した。しかし,この企てはヒッパルコスを倒しただけで失敗し,ハルモディオスはその場で殺された。以上はトゥキュディデスの伝えるところであり,後代になって二人は僭主殺しの英雄としてたたえられた。 出典 株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について 情報 |
