Manipulating against fate in the Trojan cycle

الملخص EN

Is it possible for someone to use tricks against fate? A question which hasn't got an answer yet in the available studies concerned with Greek culture.

I may say that former studies on fate were concerned -mostly- with three topics; Firstly, the concept and terms of fate according to Greek people.

Secondly, the role of gods compared with the role of fate in determining people's destiny.

Thirdly, is there a free will of choice as well as a definite irrevocable fate?
This research differs from the preceding studies on the same subject.

I will make effort to answer the question passed at the beginning of the research.

Had one of the gods or humans tried to make tricks against fate? Had anyone succeeded in such an attempt? In responding to this question, I will rely on some evidence from the legends of Trojan cycle.

I shall make use of both analytical and comparative methodologies, thus, supporting my viewpoint by means of mythical narratives outside the framework of Trojan cycle.
