Abstract: Critics explain the anthropomorphism of Greek Mythology from different aspects. This study, based on the theoretical principles of Euhemerism, tries to explore the causes of the Greek interpretation of everything in the world in terms of mankind. It’s not difficult to see from the analyses in the paper that Greek gods resemble human both in physical and mental factors, which differs from the deities in Chinese myth. According to the Euhemerism, the difference results from the distinctive history and culture in Greek. The Greek attach more to the power and the stronger but less to morality when they create the humanistic gods while the Chinese insist on making the course of nature existent and the desire of human extinct when they create the otherworldly Buddha. Thus the paper concludes that Greek mythology which permeates history and culture is more humanistic than any other myths.

摘要：评论家们对希腊神话中神人同形或同性进行了不同阐释，本文试从“神话即历史论”这一视角来分析希腊人用属于人类的词汇去解释世间万物之行为的原因。通过分析不难看出，希腊众神不仅外形与人酷似，他们的七情六欲也与人类一致，这与中国神话中的神迥然不同。从“神话即历史”这一理论来看，这种不同正是由于希腊的独特历史和文化造成的，希腊人崇尚力量膜拜强者道德感不强，希腊众神也依照他们的原型塑造，十分人性化；而中国人主张“存天理灭人欲”，其塑造的佛祖自然不食人间烟火。因此本文认为，渗入了独特历史和文化的希腊神话与其他任何一部神话相比，更凸显了人文主义的精神。
