The scientific article analyzes the genetic relationship between myth and fiction. The myth has always, to one degree or another, claimed the universality of the explanation of the world. Myth and verbal art, myth and artistic creation are genetic, for myth represents the fundamental principle of the spiritual culture of mankind. In ancient times, mythology was the main and main form of world perception and therefore possessed universalism and ideological syncretism.

A myth is a traditional story consisting of events that are ostensibly historical, though often supernatural, explaining the origins of a cultural practice or natural phenomenon. The word myth is derived from the Greek word mythos, which simply means story . Mythology can refer either to the study of myths, or to a body or collection of myths. It can mean sacred story, traditional narrative or tale of the gods. A myth can also be a story to explain why something exists. Mrs. V. Sangeetha | K.

The historiography of African myth begins by documenting, comparing, and interpreting variant traditions. Where documentation is inscriptive and comparison descriptive, interpretation is notoriously complex, embracing a variety of approaches within two methodological extremes. The functionalist extreme -- what Peel calls “presentism” -- defines myth as a charter of political and ceremonial relations in society, and interprets variant traditions as rival political claims. Myth is by this definition a false reflection of the past because it is continually revised to fit the present. The historic

The general relevance is based on the high level of entwinement of myth and its motifs within contemporary culture; the particular aspect is due to the need to objectify the 20th-century theories of myth and to define their general method (1), and to enrich cultural discourse with new works in the field of myth philosophy (2).

Abstract Greek mythology developed ideas about the mythical birth of Athena from the head of Zeus in enigmatic allusions. Hephaestus performed the obstetrics.

After introductory remarks, the first part (A) of this paper contains a collection of the most important written sources that convey basic elements of the birth myth of Athena.

Abstract:
This essay offers an interpretation of Plato’s Phaedo, which proceeds in two parts: (1) methodological interpretation of myth and (2) application of the method to the analysis of the soul. The paper claims that the myths in this dialogue are not limited to the explicitly mythical sections but that the entirety of the Phaedo—including the arguments that it presents—is saturated with myth. Through this interpretive lens, the soul, as it appears in the Phaedo, ceases to be characterized as a mere thing and gains an ontological dimension.

This paper concentrates on the connectedness between myth and war. It pictures myth as a causal explanation for war, and mirrors myth’s might and roles in erupting and exacerbating the war in Kosovo in 1999. Myths are often related to situations where people seek to construct, legitimize and contest their social identities and ownerships. Most societies are held together by myth-system. Within such systems, foundation myths purport to explain the origins and destiny of a nation. Although they may be false in significant ways, foundation myths are usually accepted uncritically by people.

Abstract:
In this paper, an interpretation is attempted of the Romanian myth, “Legenda despre zidirea lumii”. Parallels are drawn with tales such as Genesis, the Babylonian narrative of Marduk constructing the world from Tiamat, and the Norse story of Odin shaping the world from Ymir. In the Romanian myth, Satan’s prideful omission to enunciate God’s blessing as he collects sand results in the formation of varied terrains. His attempt to harm God inadvertently spreads divine blessings all over the world. Similarly, in Norse and Yoruba myths, stifling barriers and attempts at desecration lead to the para

Abstract:
In the novel The March, the well-known American writer E.L. Doctorow, through the concrete manifestation of his historical perspectives and with the assistance of the anti-myth narrative strategy, has carried out subversive rewritings of the existing narrative patterns of three myths: the myth of southern women, the myth of America’s sacred founding, and the myth of the just war between the North and the South. This is a bold and incisive literary exploration. By deconstructing these well-established myths, Doctorow challenges the traditional understanding and interpretation of history. He sho

This contribution analyses the transition from the “Semites”, which were derived, in early Semitic philology, from linguistic classification, to “Semitism,” a category combining linguistics, psychology, and cultural history. Goldziher’s critique of Renan’s understanding of Semitism not only led to a new logic of peoples in an economy of invention, transformation, and circulation but also, through the analysis of the names of the gods, to the reconstruction of a language of myth characterized by an inherent duality. With Carl Abel’s work on contradiction in primeval words, this question of dual

Abstract:
This article analyzes an Embera myth from northwest Colombia that sheds light on the origin of racial disparities and the poverty experienced by indigenous communities in comparison to “whites.” Methodologically, the myth was collected using ethnographic techniques in the Jaikerazabi community, located in the municipality of Mutatá, Antioquia. The interpretation involves identifying the myth’s structure and analyzing the historical and social context that perpetuates inequalities between the Embera and other groups. According to the myth, the subordinate status of indigenous peoples stemmed fr
