Story
Die Heimkehr der Griechen von Troja war vollbracht, und so viele der Helden den Schlachten während des Krieges oder dem Sturm auf der Heimfahrt entronnen waren, befanden sich jetzt zu Hause, glücklich oder unglücklich. Nur Odysseus, der Sohn des Laërtes, Ithakas Fürst, war noch auf der Irrfahrt und von einem seltsamen Schicksale betroffen. Nach mancherlei Abenteuern saß er in der Ferne auf einer rauen, mit Wäldern bedeckten, einsamen Insel, mit Namen Ogygia, wo ihn eine hohe Nymphe, die Göttin Kalypso, die Tochter des Atlas, in ihrer Grotte gefangen hielt, weil sie ihn zum Gemahl begehrte.

Story
Die Griechen waren noch mit dem Geleite des Königes Telephos beschäftigst, als die Tore Trojas sich auftaten und die völlig gerüstete Heeresmacht der Trojaner unter Hektors Anführung sich über die Skamandrische Ebene ergoss und ohne Widerstand gegen die Schiffe der sorglosen Achiver anrückte. Die Äußersten im Schiffslager, die zuerst zerstreut zu den Waffen griffen und den heranziehenden Feinden entgegeneilten, wurden von der Übermacht erdrückt.

Story
Adrastos, der Sohn des Talaos, König von Argos, hatte fünf Kinder, darunter zwei schöne Töchter, Argia und Deïpyle. Über diese war ihm ein seltsamer Orakelspruch geworden: er werde dieselben dereinst einem Löwen und einem Eber zu Gemahlinnen geben. Vergebens besann sich der König, welchen Sinn dieses dunkle Wort haben könnte, und als die Mägdlein herangewachsen waren, gedachte er sie so zu vermählen, dass die ängstliche Wahrsagung auf keine Weise erfüllt werden könnte. Aber das Götterwort sollte nicht zuschanden werden. Von zweierlei Seiten kamen zwei Flüchtlinge durch Argos' Tore.

Story
Auf dem Olymp war eine große Götterversammlung: Hebe wandelte an den Tischen umher und schenkte Nektar ein. Die Götter tranken einander aus goldenen Pokalen zu und schauten auf Troja nieder. Da ward von Zeus und Hera Trojas Untergang beschlossen. Der Vater der Götter wandte sich zu seiner Tochter Athene und befahl ihr, auf den Kampfplatz hinabzueilen und die Trojaner zu versuchen, dass sie die auf ihren Sieg stolzen Griechen wider den Vertrag zu beleidigen anfingen.

In uralten Zeiten wohnten auf der Insel Samothrake, im Ägäischen Meere, zwei Brüder, Iasion und Dardanos, Söhne des Zeus und einer Nymphe, Fürsten des Landes. Von diesen wagte Iasion, als ein Göttersohn, seine Augen zu einer Tochter des Olymp zu erheben, warf eine ungestüme Neigung auf die Göttin Demeter und wurde zur Strafe seiner Kühnheit von seinem eigenen Vater mit dem Blitze erschlagen.

Story
Beide Heere ruhten jetzt vom hartnäckigen Kampfe. Die Trojaner lösten ihre Rosse von den Streitwagen, aber noch ehe sie des Mahles gedachten, eilten sie zur Versammlung. Da standen alle aufrecht im Kreis umher, keiner wagte sich zu setzen, denn noch bebten sie vor Achill und fürchteten sein Wiedererscheinen. Endlich sprach der Sohn des Panthoos, der verständige Polydamas, der allein vorwärts wie rückwärts zu schauen verstand, und riet, nicht auf die Frühe zu warten, sondern sogleich in die Stadt heimzukehren.

Story
Troja war gefallen. Die heimsegelnde Flotte der Hellenen, vom Sturm halb vernichtet, hatte sich in ihren Überbleibseln wieder zusammengefunden, und auf der beruhigten See fuhren die Abteilungen der Griechen jede ihrer Heimat zu. Agamemnon, dessen Schiffe, von der Herrscherin Hera beschützt, keinen Schaden genommen hatten, steuerte rüstig auf die Küste des Peloponneses los. Schon nahete er dem spitzigen Felsenhaupte des Vorgebirges Malea in Lakonien, als ihn plötzlich aufs Neue das Ungestüm eines Orkanes ergriff und ihn mit allen Fahrzeugen in die offene Flut des Meeres zurückwarf.

Story
Aktäon war der Sohn des jagdliebenden Gottes Aristäos und der Autonoe, einer Tochter des Kadmos. Als er den Kinderjahren entwachsen war, ward er von dem weisen Zentauren Chiron am kühlen, waldreichen Gebirge Pelion erzogen und zu einem rüstigen Jäger gebildet. Seine höchste Lust war, in Tälern und Bergen dem Weidwerk obzuliegen. Einst jagte er mit fröhlichen Gesellen in den Wäldern des Kithairongebirges, bis die Mittagssonne heiß herniederschien und die kühlen Schatten der Bäume verkürzte. Da rief der Jüngling die Genossen zusammen und sprach: »Beute genug gab der heutige Tag, Stahl und Garn sind nass vom Blute des erlegten Wildes.

Äneas musste das Ende Didos, das sein Leichtsinn herbeigeführt hatte, obgleich ihm von den Göttern selbst geboten worden war, sie zu verlassen, mit neuen Irrfahrten und wiederholten Unglücksfällen büßen. Ein Sturm verschlug ihn rückwärts nach Sizilien, wo er vom Könige Acestes, dessen Mutter eine Trojanerin war, gütig aufgenommen wurde und dem Schatten seines Vaters Anchises, welchen er ein Jahr zuvor bei Drepanum begraben hatte, bei der Wiederkehr dieses Tages herrliche Leichenspiele feierte.

Story
Himmel und Erde waren geschaffen: das Meer wogte in seinen Ufern, und die Fische spielten darin; in den Lüften sangen beflügelt die Vögel; der Erdboden wimmelte von Tieren. Aber noch fehlte es an dem Geschöpfe, dessen Leib so beschaffen war, dass der Geist in ihm Wohnung machen und von ihm aus die Erdenwelt beherrschen konnte. Da betrat Prometheus die Erde, ein Sprössling des alten Göttergeschlechtes, das Zeus entthront hatte, ein Sohn des erdgebornen Uranossohnes Iapetos, kluger Erfindung voll.

Story
Theseus ist einer der berühmtesten Helden der griechischen Mythologie. Seine Nachkommen werden als Thesiden bezeichnet. Theseus Geburt: Als der athenische König Aigeus kinderlos blieb, ging er nach Delphi, um das Orakel zu befragen. Er erhielt als Orakelspruch, dass er „das vorstehende Ende eines Weinschlauchs nicht lösen“, d. h. sich nicht betrinken solle, bevor er nicht nach Athen zurückgekehrt sei. Da er die Weissagung nicht verstand, begab er sich nach Troizen zu dem weisen König Pittheus. Dieser verstand den Orakelspruch und brachte Aigeus dazu, mit einem Mädchen zu schlafen – vermutlich, indem er ihn betrunken machte.
