Eros, the precious son of Aphrodite, the goddess of love, is the youngest son born from the affair between Aphrodite and Ares. His image is a naked little boy with a pair of shining wings. He
Roaming with a bow and arrow. He mischievously shoots shocking arrows to arouse the passion of love. It brings vitality to nature and grants all things the ability to reproduce. This cute and naughty elf has two kinds of arrows: to speed up love.
He produces a golden-headed arrow and a lead-headed arrow that terminates love. In addition, he also has a torch that illuminates the soul.
In deifications, this little god of love often appears. For example, he also appears in the story of Jason and the Golden Fleece in the epic "Argonauts" written by Apollonius of Rhodes in ancient Greece.
Phrixus was saved by a golden sheep given by the gods. In order to thank the god, he sacrificed the sheep to Zeus, the king of gods, and gave the golden fleece to King Aeetes, who in turn gave the golden fleece to
Dedicated to Ares, the god of war. Ares nailed it to an oak tree in the sacred forest of Ares and let the poisonous dragon guard it. The whole world believed that the golden fleece was a priceless treasure, and many heroes and princes dreamed of getting it. Thessa
In order to get back the scepter and the throne from his uncle who usurped the throne, Jason, the prince of Leah, was tricked by his uncle and took the Greek heroes on the Argonaut to Colchis to get the Golden Fleece. In Athena
With the help of Eros, the Argonauts went through all kinds of hardships to reach their destination, but were unable to get the Golden Fleece from the fire dragon. Finally, with the help of Eros, the infatuated princess Medea was shot by Eros' arrow.
Love betrayed his father Aeetes, helped Jason get the Golden Fleece, killed his own brother who came to chase him, and followed Jason to leave his hometown and start life in a distant country.
In Roman mythology, he is called Cupid, yes, the famous Cupid, the god of love.
When Cupid appeared as a child, he was the little assistant of Venus, the god of love. As a child, he was naughty and unruly, playing with the human heart as a toy. When it comes to Cupid's naughtiness, the most representative one is
This is the story of Apollo and Daphne. In Ovid's "Metamorphoses" he writes: The sun god's first love was Peneus' daughter Daphne. This was not blind luck, but the result of Cupid's rage.
Not long after the sun god Apollo defeated the giant python, he happened to pass by and saw the little cupid bending his bow and stringing it, so he laughed and said: "Naughty boy, what are you using such a powerful weapon? It is only suitable for shoulders like mine.
I can accurately shoot wild beasts and enemies. The giant python Pitong (whose filthy body once occupied many acres of land) was just killed by me, and his whole body was covered with arrows. As for you, you should still be honest and practical.
The torch ignited the inexplicable flame of love, don't touch my honor!" Such words angered Cupid, so he raised his bow and arrow, shot the golden arrow at Apollo, and then shot another lead arrow that could cause hatred.
Shot Daphne, the daughter of the river god.
Apollo, who was hit by the golden arrow, became obsessed with Daphne, and Daphne developed an extreme hatred for Apollo. Apollo began to pursue Daphne crazily, but the disgust caused by the lead arrow made Daphne avoid him.
In order to get rid of Apollo, she exhausted all her energy, and finally when she ran to the river, she called her father, the river god, for help. The river god couldn't bear the harassment of her daughter anymore, so he reluctantly turned Daphne into a laurel tree. Her legs
She turned into a tree with roots that penetrated deeply into the earth, her hands turned into branches, and her beautiful hair turned into leaves. Apollo watched helplessly as Daphne turned into a laurel tree. He was so sad that he hugged the laurel tree and cried bitterly. This tragedy,
This is the result of Cupid, the little god of love, being stubborn and vengeful. The power of these two arrows also alludes to the impulsive, primitive driving force of love represented by Cupid.
The Roman period tended to show Cupid as a little boy or even a toddler, and as a follower of Venus. Sometimes he looked an adult, but was still a child in size. However, there are exceptions.
For example, when people describe the story of Cupid and Psyche, as a husband, Cupid still appears as a strong young man. The story of Cupid and Psyche originally came from "The Golden Ass" written by Apuleius in the second century AD.
""", the story tells how Cupid and Psyche overcame many obstacles and finally got married. In this story, Cupid is not the role that promotes or breaks up other people's love, but becomes the protagonist of pursuing love.
The beginning of the story is that because of Psyche's beauty and stunning appearance, Psyche was called "the second coming of the God of Beauty". When Venus heard this rumor, she felt offended.
So he sent his son Cupid to take revenge and let Psyche marry the ferocious monster. But surprisingly, Cupid fell in love with Psyche at first sight. Instead of letting her marry the monster, he married her.
Psyche was taken to a mysterious palace by Cupid and could only meet him in the dark every night, so she never saw his true face. One day, Psyche's curiosity drove her to light up the night
The lamp was used to see Cupid's face clearly, but she accidentally injured him and lost his power of love. In order to save Cupid, Psyche went to Venus to intercede, embarked on a difficult journey, and accepted a series of
The test. In the end, she successfully restored Cupid's power of love, reunited with him, received the blessings of the gods, became a god, and lived a happy life.
The story of Cupid and Psyche symbolizes the trials and sacrifices in love. It emphasizes that love requires loyalty, trust and self-sacrifice to overcome various difficulties. Their story has also become a common theme for artists to show love
, themes such as beauty, wisdom, loyalty and curiosity.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The tenth chapter of "Eclogue" by the Roman poet Virgil wrote: Love conquers all, let us surrender to love!
In the poem, Cupid is used as the incarnation of "love", which means that love can conquer all aspects of human civilization. Later, "love conquers everything" gradually evolved into an artistic theme, and artists often put Cupid above it in their works.
On top of things that symbolize the achievements of civilization. It is worth mentioning that the lion is an important element that appears with Cupid. The depiction of Cupid and the lion together has rich symbolic meaning. The lion is often considered a symbol of strength, power and courage.
, sometimes represents pride and anger, and is often placed together with Cupid, the god of love, for comparison to show the power of love to overcome these strong emotions.
But overall, the image of Cupid, that is, Eros, is relatively fixed, handsome, with wings and no clothes.
But what the hell is this in front of me?
The crazy rock guitarist who was wearing a red autumn coat and a bungee cord could not be related to Cupid.
The world depicted by Mad Max is a wasteland world. This world is so passionate and flamboyant. Expensive modified cars will roll, tear, and collide in the air for a moment of glory. The appeal of rock and roll is even more intense.
The artist exerted himself to the extreme in his performance. Hormones continued to flood, and the sound of "Witness" continued to echo in his ears. "Mad Max" has integrated "cool" into every minute and every second.
The fiery sun and the endless desert still ignited the passion for rock and roll, and he was able to release it to his heart's content. During the long playing process, he began to think about the meaning of the role he played, and his inspiration gradually accumulated as he played. This is
Psychedelic Rhythm Warriors.
According to the background of the movie, "Psychedelic Rhythm Warrior" was a music prodigy when he was a child and was raised by a musician mother. At that time, the end had arrived, order had collapsed, and music... became synonymous with uselessness. No one would
I care about art. At that time, the famous paintings in the museum were not as valuable as a glass of clean water... No, water is very precious in this doomsday world, especially clean and pollution-free water, which is a hard currency.
Those famous paintings are only worthy of being burned on fire.
As for other arts, they are even less worth mentioning.
This is especially true for music. Her mother may be the best musician in the world. But this musician can only live a hard life, constantly thinking of ways to support herself and her children.
Suddenly one day, a group of thugs... These things are everywhere in the wasteland. Anyone can become a thug. For a little bit of resources, it is normal to burn, kill and loot... This group of thugs rushed into the music prodigy's house.
settlement area.
And the boss of this group of thugs, Immortal Old Joe, noticed this child.
"Immortal Joe", whose real name is Joe Moore, is a veteran of the Australian Army. He participated in the "Oil War" and was considered a war hero. After losing the war, Joe Moore retired from the army and returned to China. At that time, Australia had already emerged
Seeing signs of anarchy, he used his prestige to gather a group of veterans to form the "Motorcycle Party", including "Major Kalashnikov" (later the founder of "Bullet Farm").
The "Oil War" is a worldwide war for resources imagined in the comics, which later evolved into a nuclear war. As the situation became further chaotic, more and more people joined various criminal gangs in order to protect themselves, which again
This further accelerated the spread of anarchy on this continent. In fact, the Australian government at that time could only control a few big cities. After leaving the cities, the entire country was already in a state of chaos. Joe Moore's original idea was actually very simple.
To survive with this group of veterans, they had some principles of their own at first, such as not attacking civilians and never harming women and children. However, the arrival of "nuclear winter" made everyone lose their principles.
No one knows which side started the nuclear war first. They only know that big cities such as Sydney, Melbourne, and Canberra were all hit. Fortunately, Joe Moore and his "biker gang" who often carried out activities in the suburbs at that time were not affected. However, the world
The doomsday scene drove many of his men into madness. They would fight over a pack of cigarettes and shoot homeless old men over a barrel of biscuits. At first, Joe tried to use his prestige to restrain them, but gradually he couldn't control them.
As this madness spread, I finally gave up on these principles.
After the "nuclear winter" that lasted for two years passed, Joe and his "biker gang" who survived began to move frequently, looking for any available resources. One day they encountered a "robbery gang" composed of a group of former MFP police officers.
The Looters were torturing a group of civilians. Joe Moore sent his Bikers to outflank and attack them from behind. The Looters left a few corpses and quickly fled. But the Bikers did not let go of the civilians.
, the women among them were used as tools for pleasure, and the men were shot after their property was plundered. During the search for property, a man with his nose cut off caught the attention of Joe Moore, and he realized that the group
The looters were actually interrogating the man before they were driven away. So Joe Moore promised him to ensure his safety, but the condition was that he must tell the secret. The man whose nose was cut off called himself Brody, who was originally a
A famous banker, on the way to escape with his family, he once visited a fortress composed of three mountains. It is said that these mountains are connected to underground rivers, where there is an inexhaustible source of clean water. Hearing this, Qiao was overjoyed and immediately decided to
Taking the "biker gang" and Brody there, he planned to take that fort as his own. However, Joe Moore was too naive. The people who occupied that fort were not good people. When Joe saw it with his own eyes
When he visited the fortress, he realized that it was impossible to do this. The condescending mountain was covered with countless perforations, and the only way up was a simple human-powered lifting platform. Being destitute, Joe had no choice but to show weakness and said that he was only here to trade.
, willing to exchange the women they captured for some clean water. However, before he could finish his proposal, he was attacked by the fortress. After losing several men, Joe could only retreat and stationed in an abandoned lead mine.
Come down. How could Joe Moore, who had suffered a big loss, swallow this breath and plan to storm the fortress after taking a rest. At this time, Brody reminded him that there is no chance of forcing a place like this, and he must outwit it. Three days later, "Locomotive
"The Party" was led by Major Kalashnikov and stormed the main tower of the fortress with many heavy weapons, while Joe himself led a few elite men and used a lizard tied to a rope to quietly start climbing on the back of the auxiliary tower. After passing
After two days of fierce fighting, the "bikers" on the ground suffered numerous casualties. Just when everyone had given up hope and planned to retreat, Joe Moore appeared on the top of the main tower, threw the warlord occupying the fortress from the top of the tower, and declared
The fort has changed hands, and he has since earned the title "Immortal Joe."
"Immortal Joe" was very smart. He knew that this fortress alone could not be defended for a long time. He asked his most trusted adjutant, Major Kalashnikov, to occupy the lead mine they passed earlier and transform the heavy equipment there.
The production of weapons and bullets also echoes the "fortress". Once any party is attacked, the other party can rush out of the city to help. "Immortal Joe" knows very well that people in desperate situations can do anything, but as long as they are given a little sweetness
, these people would be easy to control, so he did not take the precious water resources for himself, but distributed them to the public on a regular basis. This made the "fortress" a homeless settlement in that area and gradually developed into a
Town. Two years later, they found an oil refinery not far from the fortress. There was still a large amount of crude oil stored in the oil storage tanks in the factory area. "Immortal Old Joe" selected some experienced people from the homeless people under the fortress.
They asked Brody to lead them to occupy the refinery and start refining gasoline. Brody became the "mayor" of "Gasoline Town" and was known as the "Cannibal".
In "Mad Max", they call this rough-processed gasoline "Guzzolene", which is not the official name of gasoline in English "gasoline". Because the oil produced in "Gasoline Town" is very rough and burns
The efficiency is very low, and there is not much speed when the accelerator is pressed to the end, so there is a scene in the movie where Max takes some refined gasoline and manually injects fuel into the engine. From then on, the "Fortress" uses water sources to produce crops and daily necessities; "Bullet Farm"
"Producing weapon consumables; a stable triangular alliance was formed to produce gasoline in "Gasoline Town". "Immortal Old Joe" was of course the leader of this alliance, and he became the local emperor of that area.
"Immortal Old Joe" had two surviving children before he occupied the "Fortress". They were both born to women captured during the "Motorcycle Gang" period. However, the eldest son was born with a deformed child, named Crosus (meaning Crosus).
("Giant"); although the second child, Liktu, is physically strong, his brain is not very bright and he has a bad temper. Both children were carefully taken care of and grew up, but "Immortal Old Joe" still can't hide his desire to continue the family line, and keeps
Looking for someone to try.
"Immortal Joe" used to be strong and charismatic, but he liked to smoke a chromium-lead compound spray (a substance extracted from the lead mine of the "Bullet Farm"), which later caused him to suffer from lung cancer at the same time.
and lymphoma, gradually festering all over his body and making it difficult to breathe. In the later stages, when he wanted to appear in front of everyone, he had to try his best to hide his illness. He had to first cover his body with white talcum powder, and then put on a transparent armor full of medals.
.
In order to imitate his appearance, the "war boys" under "Immortal Old Joe" also like to paint their bodies white. When "Immortal Old Joe" captured the "Fortress", he became a god in a battle and became one of the young people in the wasteland at that time.
A role model in his heart. So he selected relatively healthy teenagers from among the homeless people waiting for alms under the "Fortress" to enter his war class, calling them "War Boys". All "War Boys" were selected
After coming out, they had to give up their original names and use simpler nicknames, such as Nux, who later joined Max's gang, and his former spearman "Slit".
"Immortal Joe" also used a religion ("Cult of the V8") invented by himself to strengthen his control over these "war boys" and shape himself into the human incarnation of the "God of the V8 Engine". As long as
If you "die with honor" in the war, you can be promoted to the "Hall of Valhalla" (Valhalla) to drink and have fun with the gods all day long. It is purely a four-dimensional cult that combines "fetishism", "Christianity" and Nordic mythology. Each one
"War Boys" are extremely fanatical. When they reach a certain age, they will get chromium-lead compound spray. Usually they like to smoke this mist to enter the illusion of communicating with the "V8 True God". Once they encounter a crisis in the war,
At any time, they will take a large amount of it and enter a state of madness, ready to sacrifice themselves for "Immortal Old Joe" at any time. Due to long-term use of this substance, almost all "War Boys" have more or less some stubborn diseases, the most common of which is
It's lymphoma. Most of them don't live to be 40 years old. However, in order to maintain their combat effectiveness, they usually use blood transfusion therapy, which is to find some healthier-looking homeless people in the wasteland and transfuse their blood to the weak ones.
"War Boy" to keep them active for a while.
At the same time, Immortal Joe will also pay attention to some "special talents", such as "Psychedelic Rhythm Warrior".
"Immortal Old Joe" accidentally discovered him when he retreated to the abandoned lead mine. At that time, he was holding his mother's head and fell into a coma. Later, he was taken in by "Immortal Old Joe" and showed a strange musical talent.
He was selected as the guitarist of the "War Boys" team and played violent music to stimulate their adrenaline during the expedition. "Faceless Guitar Man" was born before the "Nuclear War", and his mother was a band guitarist.
In ancient times, they were caught by a group of plunderers, and their mother was insulted in front of him and then beheaded. Later, after the "faceless guitar man" was rescued, he made a mask with his mother's scalp.
He had to take it with him when he played, pretending that his mother was still performing on the stage. "Immortal Old Qiao" took a fancy to his musical talent and decided to take him in and train him to become a battlefield singer. Old Qiao ordered him to perform on the battlefield regardless of the situation.
No matter how chaotic it is, the music cannot stop. In order to maintain the passion for playing at all times, the Rhythm Warrior peeled off his mother's face and put it on his own head. He decided to always use his mother's screaming face at the moment before her death to express the inner rage and darkness.
His past, painful heart, and hysterical venting are the connotation of this character.
Well, this is the Eros cosplayer now!
"So...what's going on with him? Is he in his rebellious stage?"
