Hipparchus, on the other hand, &quot;was fond of amusement and love-making.&quot; &lt;ref&gt;http://data.perseus.org/citations/urn:cts:greekLit:tlg0086.tlg003.perseus-eng1:18&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> == Harmodius and Aristogeiton 514 BC ==<br /> <br /> <br /> Thucydides described Harmodius as being &quot;in the flower of his youth, of great beauty&quot;.&lt;ref&gt;http://data.perseus.org/citations/urn:cts:greekLit:tlg0003.tlg001.perseus-eng1:6.54&lt;/ref&gt; He was the beloved of Aristogeiton, an Athenian of middle rank. Their relationship came under direct threat when Hipparchus, having fallen in love with Harmodius, made continual attempts to seduce the young man.<br /> <br /> Harmodius rejected all sexual advances from Hipparchus, something which angered the second-most-powerful man in Athens and caused him to plot revenge.<br /> <br /> In the lead up to a sacred procession, Harmodius's sister was enlisted to carry a basket. But she was expelled from the event and publicly humiliated by the implication she was not a virgin and therefore not worthy. <br /> <br /> This deliberate humiliation, engineered by Hipparchus, angered Harmodius – but it enraged his lover, Aristogeiton, who plotted revenge.<br /> <br /> Aristogeiton and his beloved, along with other co-conspirators, developed a plan to overthrow the Peisistratid tyranny by assassinating both Hippias and Hipparchus.<br /> <br /> On the day of the Great Panathenaea, an Athenian festival celebrated every fourth year, Harmodius and Aristogeiton prepared to attack the Peisistratids with daggers. But before they could begin, they saw Hippias engaging in conversation with some of the plot's co-conspiritors. Believing their plot foiled, the two lovers rushed to effect what damage they could. They came across Hipparchus and &quot;in all the fury that a man in love and a man humiliated could feel, they stabbed until they killed him.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;Homosexuality in Greece and Rome, ed. T. Hubbard, p.61&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Harmodius was immediately killed by Hipparchus's guards, while Aristogeiton was taken alive and tortured in an attempt to discover the identity of the co-conspiritors. Aristogeiton convinced Hippias he would confess all if the tyrant would only shake his hand as a pledge of good faith. Hippias did so, but was immediately taunted by Aristogeiton for shaking the hand of his brother's murderer.

Hipparchus, on the other hand, &quot;was fond of amusement and love-making.&quot; &lt;ref&gt;http://data.perseus.org/citations/urn:cts:greekLit:tlg0086.tlg003.perseus-eng1:18&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> == Harmodius and Aristogeiton 514 BC ==<br /> <br /> <br /> Thucydides described Harmodius as being &quot;in the flower of his youth, of great beauty&quot;.&lt;ref&gt;http://data.perseus.org/citations/urn:cts:greekLit:tlg0003.tlg001.perseus-eng1:6.54&lt;/ref&gt; He was the beloved of Aristogeiton, an Athenian of middle rank. Their relationship came under direct threat when Hipparchus, having fallen in love with Harmodius, made continual attempts to seduce the young man.<br /> <br /> Harmodius rejected all sexual advances from Hipparchus, something which angered the second-most-powerful man in Athens and caused him to plot revenge.<br /> <br /> In the lead up to a sacred procession, Harmodius's sister was enlisted to carry a basket. But she was expelled from the event and publicly humiliated by the implication she was not a virgin and therefore not worthy. <br /> <br /> This deliberate humiliation, engineered by Hipparchus, angered Harmodius – but it enraged his lover, Aristogeiton, who plotted revenge.<br /> <br /> Aristogeiton and his beloved, along with other co-conspirators, developed a plan to overthrow the Peisistratid tyranny by assassinating both Hippias and Hipparchus.<br /> <br /> On the day of the Great Panathenaea, an Athenian festival celebrated every fourth year, Harmodius and Aristogeiton prepared to attack the Peisistratids with daggers. But before they could begin, they saw Hippias engaging in conversation with some of the plot's co-conspiritors. Believing their plot foiled, the two lovers rushed to effect what damage they could. They came across Hipparchus and &quot;in all the fury that a man in love and a man humiliated could feel, they stabbed until they killed him.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;Homosexuality in Greece and Rome, ed. T. Hubbard, p.61&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Harmodius was immediately killed by Hipparchus's guards, while Aristogeiton was taken alive and tortured in an attempt to discover the identity of the co-conspiritors. Aristogeiton convinced Hippias he would confess all if the tyrant would only shake his hand as a pledge of good faith. Hippias did so, but was immediately taunted by Aristogeiton for shaking the hand of his brother's murderer.

Hipparchus, on the other hand, &quot;was fond of amusement and love-making.&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> == Harmodius and Aristogeiton ==<br /> <br /> <br /> Thucydides described Harmodius as being &quot;in the flower of his youth, of great beauty&quot;. He was the beloved of Aristogeiton, an Athenian of the middle class. Their relationship came under direct threat when Hipparchus, having fallen in love with Harmodius, made continual attempts to seduce the young man.<br /> <br /> Harmodius rejected all sexual advances from Hipparchus, something which angered the second-most-powerful man in Athens and caused him to plot revenge.<br /> <br /> In the lead up to a sacred procession, Harmodius's sister was enlisted to carry a basket. But she was expelled from the event and publicly humiliated by the implication she was not a virgin and therefore not worthy. <br /> <br /> This deliberate humiliation, engineered by Hipparchus, angered Harmodius – but it enraged his lover, Aristogeiton, who plotted revenge.<br /> <br /> Aristogeiton and his beloved, along with other co-conspirators, developed a plan to overthrow the Peisistratid tyranny by assassinating both Hippias and Hipparchus.<br /> <br /> On the day of the Great Panathenaea, an Athenian festival celebrated every fourth year, Harmodius and Aristogeiton prepared to attack the Peisistratids with daggers. But before they could begin, they saw Hippias engaging in conversation with some of the plot's co-conspiritors. Believing their plot foiled, the two lovers rushed to effect what damage they could. They came across Hipparchus and &quot;in all the fury that a man in love and a man humiliated could feel, they stabbed until they killed him.&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Harmodius was immediately killed by Hipparchus's guards, while Aristogeiton was taken alive and tortured in an attempt to discover the identity of the co-conspiritors. Aristogeiton convinced Hippias he would confess all if the tyrant would only shake his hand as a pledge of good faith. Hippias did so, but was immediately taunted by Aristogeiton for shaking the hand of his brother's murderer. Enraged, Hippias lost control and slew Aritogeiton on the spot.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> == Aftermath ==<br /> <br /> <br /> Hippias continued as tyrant for another four years but, in the aftermath of his brother's assassination, he developed a deep mistrust of pederasty and his rule became harsh and paranoid. He allied himself with the Persians who had attacked the institution of pederasty in Ionia in order to bring those cities under dictatorial control.<br /> <br /> <br /> Unhappiness with the ever-harsher tyranny grew until finally the Spartans were recruited to help drive out the last of the Peisistratids. Hippias fled to Persia where he became a vocal critic of pederasty.<br /> <br /> <br /> == Immortality ==<br /> <br /> Within a year of the defeat of tyranny, a statue celebrating Harmodius and Aristogeiton was erected in the agora. They were the first historical figures to receive such an honour and their fame remained steadfast, often uniting Athenian partisans of vastly different political ideals. The moment the Persians were defeated at Salamis in 480 BC, a new, bigger, bolder statue of the heroic lovers was erected.<br /> <br /> Although writers such as Thucydides carefully debunked many of the mythological elements surrounding the Harmodius and Aristogeiton story, at no time was the symbolic importance of this pederastic dynamic duo seriously threatened.<br /> <br /> The statue of Harmodius and Aristogeiton celebrated an ideal pederastic relationship. According to C. Sara Monoson, &quot;the statue invites young men and boys to identify with Harmodius and mature men with Aristogeiton and then for both to 'vicariously savor the homoerotic relationship between the two' (Stewart 1997: 73).&quot;<br /> <br /> And once charged with such pederastic energy, a good man-boy relationship will channel that into betterment of themselves and greater society. The self-confidence, love of freedom, and intellectual creativity that was to bloom in the classical age was thought to have derived from the ideal represented by this heroic couple. Even later critics of sexual activity between men and boys, such as Plato and Xenophon, never disputed the rightness of a pederastic relationship modeled on Harmodius and Aristogeiton.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Draft]]</div>
