Chi combatte sotto le mura di Troia? Gli eroi, ma anche gli dèi e, con molto accanimento, le dee. Dopotutto, questa immane contesa è stata scatenata da una rivalità tra divine: la famosa mela d’oro assegnata da Paride ad Afrodite, che in cambio gli ha dato Elena. E così, con occhi femminili stavolta è raccontata l’Iliade. È Atena a parlarci dell’ira di Achille, ed è la madre dell’eroe, Teti, a spiegare i moti dell’animo di suo figlio, le sue scelte che tanto sangue costeranno ai due eserciti.

Das Panchatantra gilt als das wichtigste literarische Werk Indiens. Das Buch besteht aus fünf Teilen, die allesamt wiederum aus inein- ander verwobenen, moralischen Fabeln und Gleichnissen bestehen. Die Übersetzung von Dr. Ludwig Fritze ist an vielen Stellen Basis dieser Neufassung, insbesondere in Form der gereimten Zeilen. Die alten Schriften in Pali und Sanskrit waren allesamt in Doppel- versen gefasst, was einerseits das Rezitieren vereinfachte, anderer- seits blieben sie dadurch besser in Erinnerung.
