Elizijske poljane

Elizijske poljaneili Elisium^[1](starogrčki:Ἠλύσιον πεδίον) ili Elizejske ravnice je koncept zagrobnog života koji je razvijen tokom vremena od nekih grčkihreligijskihifilozofskihsekti ikultova.U početku je bio odvojen od grčkog podzemlja -carstva Hada.Samo smrtnici povezani s bogovima i drugim herojima mogli su biti propušteni pored rijekeStiks.Kasnije je koncepcija o tome ko može ući proširena i na one koje su izabrali bogovi, pravednici i heroji. Oni će ostati na Elizijskim poljima nakon smrti, da žive blagoslovljenim i sretnim zagrobnim životom, i prepuštaju se uživanjima u kojem su uživali u životu.^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5]^[6]^[7]

Elizijska polja su se, premaHomeru,nalazila na zapadnom rubu Zemlje poredOkeana.^[2]U vrijeme grčkog pjesnikaHesioda,Elisium bi bio poznat i kao "Srećna ostrva", ili "Ostrva blaženih", koja se nalaze u zapadnom okeanu na kraju Zemlje.^[2]^[8]^[9]Ostrva blaženih bitebanskipjesnikPindarsveo na jedno ostrvo, opisujući ga kao parkove u sjenci, sa stanovnicima koji se prepuštaju atletskim i muzičkim zabavama.^[2]^[3]
