Did Hades take Persephone's virtue by raping her?
No. He abducted Persephone, he did not 'rape'; as in force sexual acts upon her. Even the art piece 'The rape of Persephone', the term 'rape' is used in the sense of 'to take by force', as in to abduct or kidnap.
Are there any stories including pomegranates like folktales or myths?
Yes, there is a myth including the pomegranate.There is a Greek myth where the goddess of the seasons, Demeter, had a daughter, Persephone, but when Hades (the god of the underworld) fell in love with Persephone, he stole her away to the underworld.Demeter usually kept the world into a sort of paradise, where flowers and grass and trees always grew. When Demeter became restless upon finding out Persephone went missing, her dark attitude and dreadful emotions threw the world into a winter wasteland where crops could barely grow, if at all.Persephone realized the trouble her disappearance has caused her mother, so she begged Hades to let her go back to the surface. Hades was reluctant, but eventually agreed. However, Hades offered Persephone one last piece of food before she left - the pomegranate.Persephone had only eaten a few seeds from the pomegranate, and then left to go back to Demeter.As the world emerged out of the winter wasteland when Demeter was once again re-united with Persephone, Hades had told Demeter that because Persephone ate part of the Pomegranate, she had to stay in the underworld for a quarter of the year (for the quarter of the pomegranate's seeds she ate). This was because nothing could leave the underworld, and because Persephone ate part of the underworld pomegranate, she had to stay in the underworld for part of the year.Although the entire story was to explain the changing seasons (summer, fall, winter, and spring), it was a story that included the pomegranate.
What was the purpose Persephone's story?
Demeter's daughter, Persephone, was abducted by Hades to be his queen of the underworld. Demeter went looking for her and neglected her duties: to see crops grow. People and animals complained to Zeus, who asked Hades to give Persephone back. Hades told Zeus that Persephone had eaten while with him (if only a piece of a pomegranate) and so had her home in the underworld. But Hades agreed to a compromise: Persephone was to return to her mother for one half of the year. During this part of the year Demeter is happy, during the other halv she grieves and nothing grows on the earth. (You may find small variations of this story.)
