This is not only the most unique characteristics of human primitive myth, but also show up the consciousness awakening of ancient Greek. In Greek mythology anthropomorphism the Greek gods has strong secular sexual characteristics, their actions are the embodiment of the concept of people. As Martin nelson pointed out: the personification of Greek mythology is external, which gives the visibility of the gods the other, part is internal, immediately draw the gods of psychology and historical,1 therefore anthropomorphism is the personification of the inner meaning of myth . Just like people often God do absurd things, said Greek gods without an omniscient and perfect, morally they dont have anything worthy of praise, showing characteristics of the personality of God. So in the Greek tradition, the man of God and the same sex and the humanism. In Greece you can see the ancient Greek humanism from the people description of God.God no insurmountable boundaries with people that he is the most typical, showed strong life breath, so the Greek mythology is the art of person processing and reproduction, Gods society is a reflection of the Greek society.2-5 The typical example of is the Greek and Troy wars that were written by the Homa epic: because of the beauty woman Helen.Thing said Hera, Athena, Aphrodite respectively in order to get words of the golden apple dedicated to the most beautiful goddess, and that buy the Trojan prince Paris, Hera promised to status and wealth, Athena promised to wisdom and success. Aphrodite promises to the worlds most beautiful woman, and Paris without hesitation to accept Aphrodite of the commitment, with the help of Aphrodite the abduction Sparta king, Pinera Russian wife Helen. In this way aroused the dissatisfaction and the Greek city-states a war for ten years.This field for war for the most beautiful woman, fully embodies the humanism of Greek mythology, the God with humanity more specifically said with natural humanity and their free mood no artificial performance is straightforward. Therefore, the Greek gods only Greek ideal hero, capital people. 5-8 This kind of Anthropomorphism the characteristics of a profound reflection of the strong people of this color, the divine nature of human nature of the exquisite performance. Greek mythology and legend, the ancient Greek ideas and feelings and ideals of the pursuit, but also reflects the Greek self-esteem, justice, strong, enterprising spirit and collective strength and wisdom. Therefore, what is called Greek mythology, but is Greek words dont consciously artistic processing, is formed in the Homeric Greeks God anthropomorphic religious ideas, which is in the way to civilization of regime choice influence the Greeks, Greek city are system has become the rational approximation of non religious atheism concept under the control of the inevitable product of. At the same time, I hope a wide range of contents of myths and legends, full of strong vitality, imagination and artistic expressive force, it is not a simple story but in the form of art and philosophy handed down. It is not only inherited the Roman mythology, and writer from the Renaissance to the romantic writer in the 19th century from Greek mythology draw nourishment; Marxist classical writers also have cited in Greek mythology figures and allusions to the reality of revolutionary struggle.9-10The biggest difference of Greek mythology and other ancient civilized area myth is the God anthropomorphic theory, the Greeks did not describe God as far the world high non potable pyrotechnics of sovereign rights and virtues and omniscient and omnipotent embodiment. On the contrary, they describe the God in their eyes from the real world of feeling. As the Italy thinker Vico said, people create God in their own mode rather than God create people. In fact, God is the focus of the peoples of beauty God and people are with the same sex. Because of this, the gods of the Greeks is some extremely human beings, as Burns said: the Greek god is for the sake of the peoples interests. So praising God is praising yourself. 12 The personal Gods have peoples all kinds of thoughts and feelings, life and character, integrity, courage, kindness, tolerance, optimism, and cowardly and cruel, jealousy.God is more intelligent, more powerful, more powerful than man, which is different from man but they are not the decisive force in the destiny of man. Divinity and humanity dont have impassable boundaries, people can contend with God, even God can also be defeated. Famous historian Andre Pollard had highly evaluated in the Iliad Diomedes extraordinary courage, said the second hero stab o goddess Aphrodite Aphrodite and Ares with his spear man is able to win God, indicating that the people are the masters of their own, people are more likely to believe their own wisdom and strength, so they do not fear, do not follow blindly in front of the God. This attention to human beings is the myth has permanent charm. It promoted the later Greek writers and artists, historians, philosophers to go to the artificial center road of realism.参考文献1 杨署晨:浅谈古希腊人的神观 神人同形同性论J ， 文化研究, 2009.2 王永利、邢文英等:人本主义在古希腊神文学中的体现N， 作家杂志. 2008.3 何新:诸神的起源M, 光明日报出版社, 1996 年。4 曹海青:希腊神话传说中的民族性特征J,运城学院学报, 2003年第2期.5 美爱德华麦克诺尔伯恩斯:世界文明史M, 商务印书馆, 1987 年
