Abstract

Abstract:The tale of how Achilles' armor was awarded to a worthy successor evolved to reflect customary procedures and emerging ideology. In this article I offer a new reconstruction of that changing story, as variations in the method of decision reshaped the plot to match audience expectations. The epic version began with ad hoc arbitration and an element of chance that left the loser no one to blame. The generations after Cleisthenes developed a Judgment by majority rule in which each voter must choose for himself but all are responsible, and Αjax becomes a reactionary against that new regime.

决定“武器的判断”

摘要:阿喀琉斯的盔甲是如何被授予一个有价值的继承人的故事，反映了习俗程序和新兴的意识形态。在这篇文章中，我对这个不断变化的故事进行了新的重构，因为决策方法的变化重塑了情节，以满足观众的期望。史诗般的版本以临时仲裁和偶然因素开始，让输家无可指责。在克利斯提尼之后的几代人发展了多数决定原则，每个选民必须为自己选择，但所有人都要负责，Αjax成为反对新政权的反动分子。
