After the death of Paris, his brothers Diephobus and Helenus fight over Helen, and she is awarded to Diephobus. Helenus leaves Troy but is captured by Odysseus. Helenus, a seer, tells the Greeks that they need the weapons of Heracles in order to defeat Troy. These are in the possession of Philoctetes, who has been left behind on Lemnos. Odysseus retrieves Philoctetes and the requisite weapons, with which Philoctetes then kills Paris?!? Clarification please. I've read Napoli's book and
I'm in love with it.
Added the references to Gide and to Wilson; and clarified that Neoptolomus appears in Sophocles' version of the myth. ---- Rick Lightburn, Jan. 20, 2006
parjury as cause of his rotten leg ?
can somebody bring an ancient source of this ? i wrote the same thing in the french page but i could find only Fénelon's Aventures of Telemacos as a source.
Spellings as in 'did you mean'?
Looking for Philoctetes and couldn't remember the correct spelling. How to provide more redirects for mispellings especially in difficult ones like this. I tried Philoctitese, Philocritese, Phyloctites, Pheloctitese. Is there a better vehicle than the talk page for providing mispellings to pull up the correct search.
