Full text

Abstract:

The fundamental dichotomy between savage and civilized man is examined within the archetypal Western myth of American culture. The roots of the dichotomy are explored through images produced between 1888 and 1909 by artists Frederic Remington and Charles Russell. Four John Ford films are then used as a basis for the "dichotomous archetype" approach to understanding Western myth in film. Next, twenty-nine "historical" and "contemporary" Western movies are discussed chronologically, from The Virginian (1929) to Dances with Wolves (1990), in terms of the savage/civilized schema as it is personified by the roles of archetypal characters. The conclusion proposes a potential resolution of the savage/civilized conflict through an ecumenical mythology that recognizes a universal reverence for nature.

Bek-Pedersen, Karen. "Nornir in Old Norse mythology." Thesis, University of Edinburgh, 2008. http://hdl.handle.net/1842/29143.

Full text

Abstract:

The primary object of the thesis is to discuss a particular group of female supernatural beings called ‘nornir’ and their relationship to the Old Norse concept of fate. Although well-known and often mentioned in scholarship dealing with Old Norse culture, these beings are all too often dealt with in overly superficial ways. The research presented in the thesis seeks to go much deeper in order to properly understand the nature and role of ‘nornir’ in the Old Norse world view, and the conclusions reached importantly overturn a number of stereotypical conceptions that have long dominated our understanding of ‘nornir’. The discussion of these beings falls into four main chapters: a discussion of the similarities and differences between ‘nornir’ and several other kinds of female supernatural beings; a discussion of certain symbolic aspects relating the dwelling place of the ‘nornir’ to their strongly feminine nature; a discussion of the well-established image in which fate is represented through different kinds of textile work, and the problems that surround this metaphor in the Old Norse sources; and a discussion of the Old Norse vocabulary relating to fate and the quasi-legal aspects of the ‘nornir’. The thesis focuses on Old Norse culture and uses predominantly Old Norse source material. Comparative material, especially Celtic, Anglo-Saxon and Classical, is, however, employed when this is thought to be relevant.

Abstract:

The Birth is a multi-media video installation inspired by my personal experiences of a miscarriage and the births of my two children. The work is influenced by the mythologies found in Korean culture that focus on the mother figure as a ¡°Great Mother¡±. She is an ¡°ideal woman¡±, a ¡°good mother¡± and a ¡°sincere wife¡±. Working abstractly across the media of painting, video, digital animation, and the paintings of my son, The Birth exploits metaphors and symbols, to tell the story of women, especially the stories of mothers. The work speaks to motherly love and my own identity as an artist and a mother.

Abstract:

La thèse, intitulée "Tre miti ovidiani in Dante : Piramo e Tisbe, Narciso e Semele" est une analyse de la présence de ces trois fabulae des Métamorphoses dans l'œuvre de Dante. La sélection des mythes a été dictée par la nécessité de définir un champ aussi vaste et par l'intention de mettre en évidence la relation entre l'Eros et la Connaissances, qui est si important dans le système poétique et philosophique de l'auteur florentin.Cette étude se fie par ailleurs l'objective de souligner la manière dont Dante utilise le modèle d'Ovide: la rencontre avec la source classique prévoit un dialogue continu, à la fois textuel et théorique-conceptuel. Le mythe devient ainsi un récit qui faut démêler dans ses applications multiples et parfois contradictoires. En ce qui concerne les sources, une attention particulière a été accordée aux commentaires médiévaux sur les Métamorphoses. En particulier, les œuvres suivantes ont été gardées à l'esprit : le Allegoriae super Ovidii Metamorphosi de Arnolfo d'Orléans, le Integumenta Ovidii de Jean de Garland, l'exégèse de Giovanni del Virgilio et l'Ovide moralisé. Ce poème mythographique de la première moitié du XIVe siècle, même si postérieur, s'est révélé utile en vue d'une reconstruction de la réception du mythe après la Commedia. On a donc essayé de reconstruire la perception réelle que le Moyen Age avait du texte d'Ovide, en prenant également en compte la présence des fabulae dans la littérature vernaculaire antérieure ou contemporaine de Dante.L'ensemble de l'analyse tend à montrer comment, dans le voyage de perfectionnement de Dante, le concept d'Eros soit intimement lié à la possibilité d'une vraie connaissance, à condition qu'elle soit soutenue par la raison et la foi

Miller, Louise May Whilhemina. "Classical mythology and the contemporary playwright." Thesis, Kingston University, 2014. http://eprints.kingston.ac.uk/29879/.

Full text

Abstract:

This practice-based thesis explores, through the creation of three new full-length plays, the ways in which a contemporary playwright might engage with classic mythology, specifically ancient Greek mythology in the development of new work. The plays form a triptych, each inspired by a single, yet interconnected Greek myth: their mythic inspirations are as follows, Sodium (2010-11) Theseus and the Minotaur, Sulphur (2011-12) Ariadne at Naxos, and Silver (2010) Icarus and Daedalus. Non-dramatically extant ancient Greek myths were selected in order to seek to explore dramatic possibilities beyond Greek tragedy. The diverse ways in which this body of work was approached is framed by the influence of contemporary theatre practice. Alongside this creative enquiry, the thesis explores the impetus which prompted practitioners to turn to classical mythology for inspiration over two millennia since the myths were created. Reflection on the processes which led to the creation of these plays in relation to the author’s own highlights potential conflicts between ancient and contemporary theatre practice, and seeks to explore ways in which the juxtaposition between traditional and contemporary approaches to theatre making can spark creative engagements. The fission between tradition and subversion was a key factor in the creation of the plays now presented, offering possible insights into the ways in which contemporary practitioners can benefit from a playful engagement with traditional practice in order to generate new work.

Abstract:

The plurality of mythical thinking allows for a wide range of perspective approaches. We propose a direction related to the technologies evoked in the coordinates of the mythical universe, namely magical vehicles. We will focus on the most commonly used means of transportation, such as the flying chariot, the magic carpet, the Indian Vimana, etc., but also on the original technologies such as the caduceus, the golden ram or the flight shoes. In investigating the topic, we used texts from universal as well as from Romanian mythology. This research allows us to reconfirm the precious polysemous message of myths, in this case from the perspective of miraculous mythical vehicles.

Full text

Abstract:

Environmental justice (EJ) activists have long worked with abolitionists in their communities, critiquing the ways policing, prisons, and pollution are entangled and racially constituted (Braz and Gilmore 2006). Yet, much EJ scholarship reflects a liberal Western focus on a more equal distribution of harms, rather than challenging the underlying systems of exploitation these harms rest upon (Álvarez and Coolsaet 2020). This article argues that policing facilitates environmentally unjust developments that are inherently harmful to nature and society. Policing helps enforce a social order rooted in the ‘securing’ of property, hierarchy, and human-nature exploitation. Examining the colonial continuities of policing, we argue that EJ must challenge the assumed necessity of policing, overcome the mythology of the state as ‘arbiter of justice’, and work to create social conditions in which policing is unnecessary. This will help open space to question other related harmful hegemonic principles. Policing drives environmental injustice, so EJ must embrace abolition.

Abstract:

The development towards the mainstreaming of extremism in European countries in the areas of immigration and integration has taken place both in policy and in discourse. The harsh policy measures that were implemented after the 2015 refugee crisis have led to a discursive shift; what is normal to say and do in the areas of immigration and integration has changed. Anti-immigration claims are today not merely articulated in the fringes of the political spectrum but more widely accepted and also, at least partly, officially sanctioned. This study investigates the anti-immigration claims, seen as (populist) appeals to the people that centre around a particular mythology of the people and that are, as such, deeply ingrained in national identity construction. The two dimensions of the populist divide are of relevance here: The horizontal dimension refers to articulated differences between "the people", who belong here, and the "non-people" (the other), who do not. The vertical dimension refers to articulated differences between the common people and the established elites. Empirically, the analysis shows how anti-immigration views embedded in processes of national myth making during and after 2015 were articulated in the socially conservative online newspaper Samtiden from 2016 to 2019. The results indicate that far-right populist discourse conveys a nostalgia for a golden age and a cohesive and homogenous collective identity, combining ideals of cultural conformism and socioeconomic fairness.
