    Pandora 潘多拉

    希腊神话中的第一个女凡人,因Prometheus把火把从天上带到人间,宙斯为惩罚他,合众神之力,创造出一个无比美丽但没有智慧的女子Pandora,派她到人间成为Prometheus的弟弟Epimetheus的妻子,并送她一个盒子作为礼物,即充满各种灾难的潘多拉魔盒,并再三警告她不要将这个盒子打开。但很不幸,在好奇心的驱使下,魔鬼被打开了,各种灾难降临人间,仅希望留在盒子里。Pandora字面意思为众神的礼物,来自pan-,全,泛,-dora,给,礼物,嫁妆,词源同data,dowry.Prometheus字面意思为先知,智者,Epimetheus字面意思为后知,笨蛋。

    Pandora
    1570s, in Greek mythology, the first mortal woman, made by Hephaestus and given as a bride to Epimetheus, from Greek pandora "all-gifted" (or perhaps "giver of all"), from pan "all" (see pan-) + doron "gift," from PIE root *do- "to give" (see date (n.1)).

    Pandora"s box (1570s) refers to her gift from Zeus, which was foolishly opened by Epimetheus, upon which all the contents escaped. They were said to be the host of human ills (escaping to afflict mankind), or, in a later version, all the blessings of the god (escaping to be lost), except Hope, which alone remained.
