O MITO NA PERSPECTIVA DA FILOSOFIA E SUA PRESENÇA NO PENSAMENTO DE FREUD

Abstract

The present work deals with investigating theoretical nuances between the concepts of myth and its applications to the contemporary sociocultural apparatus. Through a bibliographic review, we propose a counterpoint of Freud's thought with the writings of Russell, Hegel, Cassirer, Plato and others, in order to bring clarity to the theme, while enriching the debate that is established here. Justifies our investigation, the need to give substance to the discourses that intertwine the mythical and psychic elements to the formators of society. As preliminary results of our readings, we saw that, in addition to being omnipresent in our social and Philosophy cultural history, the myth and its rites, because they are timeless, interpenetrate all consciences and contribute to the strengthening of the understanding of human facts on earth.
