has gloss | eng: In Greek mythology, Elpis (Ancient Greek: ἐλπίς) was the personification of hope, perhaps a child of Nyx and mother of Pheme, the goddess of fame, renown and rumor. She was depicted as a young woman, usually carrying flowers or cornucopia in her hands. In Hesiods Works and Days, Elpis was the last item in Pandoras box (or jar). Based on Hesiod's description, the debate is still alive to determine if Elpis was only hope, or more generally expectation. Her Roman equivalent was Spes. |
