  IV International Conference of Myth Criticism

  Myth and Emotions

  Along with rational logic there is an emotional logic, responsible for many actions that we carry out. Myth Criticism tends to tackle mythical stories from a structural, social and historical perspective. However, it often ignores the emotional component. It seems as if the affective dimension, particularly active in our contemporary society, is not considered relevant in the studies of mythology.

The object of the study will focus on ancient, medieval and modern myths in contemporary literature and art (since 1900).
