Abstract:
Vilnius UniversityThe present paper concentrates on particular mytho-religious symbolism and mythological structures used in two popular films by famous contemporary Indian film director Ashutosh Gowariker: Lagaan (2001) and Swades (2004). These films are significant in the history of Indian popular cinema not only for their complex problems related to the sensitive topics of anti-colonialism, nationalism and patriotism, but also for their widely used mytho-religious symbolism. My goal in this essay is to analyse these two films, identifying the mythological symbols and mythological structures

Abstract:
The hybridity that is seen everywhere in symbolist poetry is not so much evidence of a temporary trend of the era following the interest in the crossing of species in nature as much as it is an attempt to confront the very nature of “art” itself. The time of the “quarrel of monsters” has passed, and the hybrids of contemporary poetry – competing for a place in the mythological scene that is symbolism – roam guiltless. And yet, beyond literary conventions, this mythological bestiary is anything but innocent and outdated; in fact, it embodies a genuine mythopoetic repertoire. For Mallarmé in par

Abstract:
Three dreams have animals as main characters in Plutarch’s works: Themistocles 26.3 (a snake that changes into an eagle), Cimon 18.2 (a barking dog) and De sera 555 B-C (wolves and vultures). In these three cases Plutarch uses animals in order to foresee the immediate future of the dreamers but also because of the mythological and literary symbolism they have. This paper will focus on these symbolisms related to the dreams.

The findings emphasize language as a key element in fantasy storytelling, enhancing reader immersion and engagement.

The idea is argued that mythological thinking as a symbolic form, awakens the cognitive and aesthetic fantasy of man, the allegorical, empirical perception of reality. Later, philosophy, oriented towards theoretical knowledge, appropriate to objective reality, will reorganize thinking by applying logical structures to language and, thus, will make it possible to know scientific truth.
