Eris, Zeus and St Gulik are participants in this dialogue. The Goddess Eris, fallen in universal disrepute brings complaints to the father Zeus about unjust slander against her both from the men and from the gods, and to want to persuade the omnipotent one that Chaos is the true mother of Existence, the conservator of men and of everything earthbound; moreover not only is it good in itself, but its for its work that everything exists, without it there would be no moderates or extremes in the world, everything would mingle and muddle. On this basis: all is destruction and regeneration, and only Eris can give knowledge of this. The incessant push and pull between these two operations is to all others essential. Observe the ingenuity in this dialogue, tutio wrote to tucianesca, is truly a beautiful and ingenious sophism argued with panache, and often salted with wisdom in the style of the philosopher’s writings.
Eris. How is it, Zeus, that I, which produced and keep the world, is worthy of being reproached and blasphemed by everyone?
Zeus. How did you come to think that?
Eris. Howcome? You know very well, that in the beginning the world originated in Chaos in a way that nothing had neither form nor name, I stood there distinguishing everything down there on the earth, so the son born mortals, and from the upper part it pulls the sky, from the lower part i created the Gods, to which at present do you resist. Wise Zeus, you are my descendant; The way i see it I brought forth the sky, which was Saturn, who was your father.
Zeus. This is all new to me. Nor that my father, I remember, ever knew much of how it was to be part of Chaos, as you know.
Eris. Remember, at least, I have had the domain that you hold, with which this is the contention that it was between you and your father, you lord of the universe. But your father was very ungrateful and malignant, nor that I willingly come between relatives, slave-like steward in his house with attire of little bright colored pieces of cloth, similar to those of fools, although i did not allow this to continue, I finally managed to leave the house through my long patience with him, and to you, never the conformist, I gave the power over these domains. Therefore its reasonable that I remind you to do justice regarding the shameful offenses that i spoke of, you, who, listening to my reasons, will act in pity of me to prevent my bad reputation from hurting the honor of us gods.
