However, it is clear that the perspective of this text is not an historical analysis of myth per se, nor transiting through traditional methods (interpretation of certain myths, to trace the origin of a particular myth or make an explanatory analysis same) the mythical analysis, but to approach theories resume prospects imagination theory, literary theory, the myth criticism and some other linguistic grounds and reception. The study of myth is seen here as a complex, multiple, confronted in opposite dynamic embodied, noun subjects, which expresse a general, but specific mythic narrative for each lifetime of a myth.
