Abstract:

The article touches upon the issue of the need to study the phenomenon of “national-state myth” more intensively in the modern conditions of life of the society. The analysis of the national-state myth specifics is carried out not only as a kind of political myth, but firstly as a socio-cultural phenomenon. We assert that among the newest myths, which significantly affect the value orientations and life standards of each society, a special place is occupied exactly by the national-state myth. Such myth is called to form public opinion about the state as representative and defender of key natio

Abstract:

This paper aims to bring the concept of ‘Myth’ and the historical view of Orhan Pamuk's The Red-Haired Woman. This research is based on ‘New Historicism’ and given prominence to textual aspects. For two decades, readers have been inspired not only by the distant past in symbols but also by colors hardly seen in previous texts. It could not be a surprise to learn that the themes of his The Red-Haired Woman are repression and amnesia. The researcher has tried to focus on ‘collective unconsciousness’ through the protagonist’s mythical background. This fiction gives a daring approach to reading ca

Relevance. The appeal to the topic of socio-ontological research of political myth is caused by the fact that in the conditions of rapidly becoming more complicated socio-political reality and the emergence of qualitatively new entities of social and political existence, conceptually holistic approaches to the study of political myth are practically not covered in Russian and world literature against the background of many political science, linguistic and socio-cultural studies.The purpose is to reveal the ontological essence of the political myth within the framework of its theoretical and p

Abstract:

The Samguk Yusa (Memorabilia of the Three Kingdoms), while influenced by Chinese texts such as the Goseng Zhuan (Biographies of Eminent Monks), goes beyond a mere religious or historical record. It is a multifaceted work that blends history, legend, poetry, and song, creating a narrative that interweaves the real, the mythical, and the transcendent. Especially in the Gii and Heungbeop sections, its legends maintain strong ties to historical and social realities. Thus, unlike typical legends or myths that may present transcendence as an escape from the suffering of history, Samguk Yusa insists

Abstract:

In the article, against the background of a surge of interest in research on the memory of the Soviet past, the author draws attention to the myth as an important part of historical memory, as an essential characteristic of memory along with narrative and symbol. Myths are generated by the processes of myth-making and mythologization, and, as a result of the action of the latter, aspects of being are endowed with mythological imagery and mythosymbolics. Currently, a special period undergoing permanent mythologization is the Soviet time. Through the study of the manifestations of the mythologic

This study examined sustainable eco-ethno-tourism in the Ranchería River Delta Integrated Management District (DMI) as an environmental management tool to conserve and protect environmental and cultural aspects of the protected area. A mixed methodological strategy was implemented, combining documentary and descriptive research. On the other hand, the descriptive research involved unstructured interviews with experts to understand the conceptions and concepts related to the empowerment of eco-ethno-tourism for the sustainability of the Ranchería river delta, La Guajira.

The purpose of the article is to reveal the negative aspects of using the term "empire" to characterize the Russian state and determine its geopolitical nature. The research is based on the achievements of a linguistic turn in socio-humanitarian studies, which have not yet been adequately taken into account in legal science. Leximes, as units of a particular language, do not simply denote certain phenomena of the surrounding world, but function as peculiar entities that determine the horizons of a native speaker, a particular picture of the world including value preferences and attitudes.

Abstract:

This paper examines the major trends since the 1950s in social science writing on forest management in Southeast Asia. Southeast Asia is simultaneously rich in and dependent on natural resources, both for local and national use or sale. Among renewable resources, forest products have played critical roles in the region's national, provincial, and local economies before, during, and after colonialism — for as long as two millennia. Their importance in international trade illustrates that Southeast Asia's forests linked the region to other parts of the world for quite some time, dispelling myths

Abstract:

During the Qianlong period (1736–95) in China, knowledge of Manchu origins, much of which had been of a folk or informal character, was given documentary institutionalization—that is, incorporation into the Qing (1636–1912) imperial cultural mosaic by the act of writing something official about it. Much but by no means all of Manchu civilization was derived from Jurchen culture (tenth–seventeenth centuries), which was primarily a folk culture in which oral tradition, shamanic ritual, and clan custom were the mainstays of orderly social life. Inseparable from those folk traditions were elements

The purpose of this article is to define the relation between the elite and the public aspects in the Genesis story. My contention is that an ethnic (national) myth, in order to fulfill the purpose of creating a national sentiment, needs to hit “the deep popular cord,” or the element of longue durée, of “the long-term relationship between national past, present and future” (A.D. Smith). It is important to ask: How far, and by what means, is the national history of the Bible written for the public sentiment?

The human condition within the context of social reality and history, and individual destiny in relation to moral and religious norms imposed at the collective level, are major themes that in Mario Vargas Llosa’s work become sources of intense narrative and interpersonal conflict. According to the Peruvian writer, an individual's happiness is perpetually constrained by the normative aspects of society, whose purpose is to prevent them from fully realizing their inner potential. This limitation leads to discontent, rebellion, and inevitable revolt aimed at overturning power structures. Literatu

Less attention is paid to the effect of the psychological factor, since it is usually associated not with the collective, but with the individual principle, although it is extremely difficult to separate one fr

Pirates have become embedded within Merseyside’s social consciousness through cultural events. This article examines into how and why Merseyside has

The Sacred Way to Eleusis is one of the most interesting places in Greece for exploring the social and religious construction of the landscape in Ancient Greece.

In this paper, the spotlight is placed on the process of constructing this sacred way through myths and rituals. These are linked to some crucial places along the way, built as landmarks or nodes where rites, stories and cults intertw
