Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:While disputing the supposed overcoming of myth in the modern world and the validity of the mythos-logos dichotomy, this paper suggests an approximation between the categories of mythical thought enumerated by Ernst Cassirer and the work of Walter Benjamin, represented here especially by the author’s youthful writings, which make up his philosophy of language. More precisely, other essays and books of his will be resorted to in order to suggest this thinker’s abundance of material as a profitable field for the study of myth.
