Hi there all, I have a project I'm working on and would love some feedback or input from anyone who's willing.
I'm writing my senior thesis right now, on the subject of art and myth. My thesis statement is Art as a form of storytelling demonstrates that we are as reliant on myths of the past as we always have been. I'm writing the section now on myth and storytelling; specifically, I'm working on a section about modern attitudes towards myth and mythology.
What I'd love is to hear people's ideas and opinions about myth. What do you think myth is? What do you think mythology is? Do you think there's a difference? Do you think myth/mythology are around today? Do you think they play an active role in your culture, or not? Do you think there is a connection between mythology and religion? And any other thoughts that might come up.
If you choose to respond, please let me know if I can quote you (with appropriate citations) in my paper. I'm still new to posting here, so if this is totally in the wrong place or isn't an OK kind of thing to ask, my apologies, and I'll happily fix it if I can.
Thanks for reading, and thanks for any replies.
