Abstract
Although the soul of a people is not an eternal, unchangeable substance, the national specificity is still a permanent one. Starting from the idea that mythology occupies an essential place in a culture, it is important to know the national mythology, because it presents in a specific form the themes of the everlasting thought, whose discovery makes sense to a life, and illustrates at the same time, the specificity of the national spirituality and even of the cultural identity. The national identity means differentiation and, at the same time, a specific opening to the existence where a collective consciousness is reflected, starting from the idea that a people’s mentality can be a collective self-portrait.In the following study, we shall only refer to two of the myths specific to our people, namely: Miorita and Manole, the Artisan. For the Romanian spirituality, mioritism is a profound, ontological and anthropo-historical dimension where one can speak of a human becoming in layers of interference. An alternative to the popular Carpathian vision of existence from the plan of the native psycho-social Universe is the positive value of the abyssal categories of the culture where the man is fulfilled by creation. As a follow-up to this statement, the myth of the creative sacrifice, exemplified here by Manole, the Artisan, highlights the man’s destiny to become a culture creator. Culture is a necessary and complementary dimension of the human-specific way of being.
虽然一个民族的灵魂不是永恒不变的物质,但民族的特殊性仍然是永恒不变的。从神话在文化中占有重要地位的观点出发,了解民族神话是很重要的,因为它以一种特定的形式呈现了永恒的思想主题,这些主题的发现对生活有意义,同时也说明了民族精神甚至文化认同的特殊性。民族认同意味着分化,同时也是对集体意识所反映的存在的一种特定的开放,从一个人的心态可以是一个集体的自画像这一观点出发。在接下来的研究中,我们将只提到我们民族特有的两个神话,即:Miorita和Manole, the Artisan。对于罗马尼亚人的灵性来说,少数民族主义是一个深刻的、本体论的和人类历史的维度,在这个维度上,人们可以谈论一个人在层层干扰中成为一个人。与流行的喀尔巴阡人的存在观不同,从本地的心理-社会宇宙的计划来看,有一种积极的价值,那就是文化的深渊类别,在那里,人是通过创造来实现的。作为这一说法的后续,创造性牺牲的神话,在这里以工匠马诺雷为例,突出了人成为文化创造者的命运。文化是人类特有的生存方式的一个必要的和互补的维度。
