| | Peleus - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Peleus |
 | | Peleus was the son of Aeacus (a son of Zeus and later a judge of the underworld). |
 | | Peleus accompanied Eurytion to the heroic Calydonian hunt organized by the Argonaut Meleager (to kill a wild boar ravaging the kingdom of Calydonia); but having accidentally killed his father-in-law, he again became an outcast and took refuge in Iolcus, whose king, Acastus, purified him. |
 | | The son of Peleus was furious, and his heart within his shaggy breast was divided whether to draw his sword, push the others aside, and kill the son of Atreus, or to restrain himself and check his anger. |
