From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaFor other uses, see Hermione.HermioneHermione was the daughter of Menelaus andHelen in Greek mythologyPronunciation/hərˈmaɪ.ɵniː/GenderFemaleOriginWord/nameGreekMeaningMessenger, derived from HermesLook up Hermione in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.The Meeting of Orestes and HermioneIn Greek mythology, Hermione (/hərˈmaɪ.ɵniː/; Greek: Ἑρμιόνη[1]) was the only child of KingMenelaus of Sparta and his wife, Helen of Troy.[2] Prior to the Trojan War, Hermione was betrothed by Tyndareus, her grandfather,[3] to Orestes. However, during the Trojan War, Menelaus promised her to Neoptolemus, also known as Pyrrhus, son of Achilles.[4] Historical sources disagree over whether such a dual promise actually occurred. For example,Euripides has Orestes say:″Because, in fact, you were rightfully mine, from a long time ago. Your father has promised you to me before he left for Troy but then, the liar that he is, when he got to Troy, he offered you to Neoptolemos, your present husband, if he, in return captured the city″.— Andromache 969, translation by George TheodoridisOvid, though seems to confirm this earlier betrothal:(Hermione) "Tyndareus gave me to you, he, my ancestor, heavy with experience,and years: the grandfather decided for the grand-child.But Menelaus, my father, made a promise of me, unaware of this act.."— Heroides 8.31., translation by A. S. KlineThis statement implying that her grandfather, Tyndareus, had betrothed her already when her father, Menelaus, then betrothed her to a new suitor, unaware of the previous promise of Hermione's hand in marriage made by her grandfather.Regardless, ten years after the end of the Trojan War, Neoptolemus claimed Hermione as his wife. Their marriage is mentioned in Book 4 of the Odyssey, when Telemachus, son ofOdysseus, visits Sparta and meets Helen and Menelaus.Shortly after settling into the domestic life, however, conflict arose between Hermione andAndromache (widow of Hector, prince of Troy and elder brother of Paris), the concubine Neoptolemus had obtained as a prize after the sack of Troy. Hermione blamed Andromache for her inability to become pregnant, claiming that she was casting spells on her to keep her barren. She asked her father to kill Andromache while Neoptolemus was away at war, but when he chose not to go through with the murder, Hermione fled from Epirus with her cousin Orestes.Hermione and Orestes were married, and she gave birth to his heir Tisamenus. The myths do not mention Hermione after that, though it is said that Orestes later married his half-sisterErigone, daughter of Clytemnestra and Aigisthus, who was Orestes' second cousin.
