Abstract

The Judgement of Paris is likely one of the most famous mythological episodes of the western culture. However, we also know very little about the original contours of the episode. Taking advantage of the text of the Excidium Troiae, which will be presented briefly, this article will present why Paris was the hero selected to decide on the beauty of the three goddesses.
