Theorizing myth

Bruce Lincoln

Autre Première publication : 1999

Résumé

Heroic accounts of progress and the march of civilization, when narrating the beloved Greek Miracle, regularly grant prominent place to the transformation in speech and thought that led from the mythos of Homer and Hesiod to the logos of Heraclitus and Plato, a transformation associated with the move from symbolic to rational discourse, anthropomorphism to abstraction, and religion to philosophy.
