Streghe che cavalcano lupi e iene, cortei notturni di morti senza riposo, uomini trasformati in animali, formule magiche in grado di controllare spiriti e divinità: ogni popolo e ogni cultura del mondo, dall'alba dei tempi fino a oggi, ha creduto nell'esistenza di individui capaci di nuocere agli altri attraverso poteri magici; personaggi che incutono paura o provocano repulsione, dai quali è necessario difendersi, le cui caratteristiche vanno a formare la sfaccettata figura della strega.

In this Very Short Introduction, Robert Segal introduces the array of approaches used to understand the study of myth. These approaches hail from disciplines as varied as anthropology, sociology, psychology, literary criticism, philosophy, science, and religious studies. Including ideas from theorists as varied as Sigmund Freud, Claude Levi-Strauss, Albert Camus, and Roland Barthes, Segal uses the famous ancient myth of Adonis to analyze their individual approaches and theories.

Story0
From a European-Western perspective, much of what is related to the state of Japan, including its history and culture and the people who live there, seems not only foreign, but also in some ways inaccessible and incomprehensible. Those who do not deal with it explicitly often have no connection to Japan at all. This, of course, is also true of Japanese mythology. In contrast to Greco-Roman or Nordic-Germanic mythology, the level of knowledge about it in the West is rather low.

Eine starke Geschichte kann die Welt retten - oder sie zerstören. Sie kann Wahlen entscheiden, Menschenleben retten, aber auch Kriege auslösen und Ungerechtigkeit zementieren. Samira El Ouassil und Friedemann Karig verfolgen diese ambivalente Wirkungsmacht anhand wichtiger Narrative von der Antike bis zur Gegenwart. Und sie zeigen, welche Erzählungen uns heute gefährden und warum wir neue benötigen. Wie gelingt es, den Klimawandel so zu erzählen, dass er zum Handeln drängt? Aus welchen Überlegenheitsmythen entstehen Rassismus und Antisemitismus?

Con "El legado de los monstruos" Ignacio Padilla quiere pensar el poder de los miedos para proyectarse en imágenes. Analiza entonces los artefactos y maquinarias que caracterizan a esa producción de los temores en la mitología, la ficción literaria y otras representaciones sociales. De ahí surge la idea de un "mercado pánico" como lugar de cruce en una economía del miedo ("recurso escandalosamente renovable"). Y se plantean las preguntas: ¿Por qué desde hace milenios consumimos tantos espantos reelaborados? ¿Qué motivaciones traen a nuestras vidas?

Why have societies all across the world feared witchcraft? This book delves deeply into its context, beliefs, and origins in Europe's history. The witch came to prominence - and often a painful death - in early modern Europe, yet her origins are much more geographically diverse and historically deep. In this landmark book, Ronald Hutton traces witchcraft from the ancient world to the early modern state.

Hercules, Zeus, Thor, Gilgamesh - these are the figures that leap to mind when we think of myth. But to David Leeming, myths are more than stories of deities and fantastic beings from non-Christian cultures. Myth is at once the most particular and the most universal feature of civilization, representing common concerns that each society voices in its own idiom.

This fascinating audiobook is the first volume in a projected cultural history of the United States, from the earliest English settlements to our own time. It is a history of American folkways as they have changed through time, and it argues a thesis about the importance for the United States of having been British in its cultural origins. While most people in the United States today have no British ancestors, they have assimilated regional cultures which were created by British colonists, even while preserving ethnic identities at the same time.

Les symboles ont un usage bien plus quotidien qu'on ne l'imagine. Comme le disait Aristote, "le mot chien ne mord pas", il est le symbole par lequel nous pouvons désigner la réalité du chien. Le rôle du symbolisme consiste donc à exprimer n'importe quelle idée d'une façon qui soit accessible à tout le monde. Cet ouvrage se propose d'analyser les mutations des signes depuis leur apparition jusqu'à leur lointaine métamorphose, notamment dans le domaine des mythes, et d'étudier ce qui se dresse entre la chose et l'idée : le symbole.

Sagenumwoben ist der Harz und steht vor allem für das Überirdische. Brocken und Umland bilden den Kern teuflischer Aktivitäten und des Hexenwerks. Die Walpurgisnacht ist ein weiteres Thema vieler Harzsagen. Dabei darf der Teufel natürlich nicht fehlen. Unzählige Orte können dazu spannende Geschichten beitragen.
