The expression “Apple of discord”: Subject of discussion and dispute.
If the expression dates from the XNUMXth century, its origin goes back to Greek mythology.
The goddess Eris (or Discord, in Greek) was so furious at not being invited to the wedding of Peleus with the goddess Thetis that she threw among the other goddesses present a golden apple on which was engraved "to the fairest ".
Zeus appointed Paris as a volunteer to decide who, between Aphrodite, Hera and Athena should keep the apple.
In order to be chosen, each made a promise to Paris, the first promising him the love of the most beautiful woman in the world, the second a great kingdom and the third wisdom.
Paris allowed himself to be persuaded by Aphrodite's promise and gave her the golden apple.
We now understand the origin of the bone of contention. The woman promised by Aphrodite turned out to be Helen, Queen of Sparta and wife of Menelaus, whom Paris kidnapped and brought back to Troy, thus provoking war.
