Description

Myth, Society and Profanation from the Routledge Studies in Social and Political Thought series offers a deep investigation into how myth functions within modern structures. This work challenges the common negative view of myth by demonstrating its presence in the fundamental layers of society, politics, individuality, and temporality. By drawing upon the theories of influential European thinkers such as Schelling, Nietzsche, Freud, Bataille, and Baudrillard, the text explores how myth remains implicated in our world despite an intensive process of profanation. Readers will examine the sacred dimensions of myth, the modern myth of desire, and the various cultural effects resulting from profanation. This book provides a rigorous academic perspective for those studying social and political thought.
