EBOOK Myth A Very Short Introduction
Opis
This book is not about myths, but about approaches to myth, from all of the major disciplines, including science, religion, philosophy, literature, and psychology. A survey of the past 300 years of theorizing on myth, this book takes into account the work of such prominent thinkers as Albert Camus, Claude Levi-Strauss, Roland Barthes, C. G. Jung, and Sigmund Freud. Segal also considers the future study of myth, and the possible function of myth in the world as the adult equivalent of play.
