THE DEFINITIONS OF THE MOST IMPORTANT TERMS IN MYTHOLOGY







Mythology refers variously to the collected myths of a group of people or to the study of such myths. Myths are the stories people tell to explain nature, history, and customs.


Myth is a feature of every culture. Many sources for myths have been proposed, ranging from personification of nature or personification of natural phenomena, to truthful or hyperbolic accounts of historical events to explanations of existing rituals. Mythologizing continues, as shown in contemporary mythopoeia such
as urban legends and the expansive fictional mythoi created by fantasy
novels and comics. A culture's collective mythology helps convey
belonging, shared and religious experiences, behavioral models, and moral and practical lessons.


The study of myth began in ancient history. Rival classes of the Greek myths by Euhemerus, Plato and Sallustius were developed by the Neoplatonists and later revived by Renaissance mythographers.
The nineteenth-century comparative mythology reinterpreted myth as a
primitive and failed counterpart of science (Tylor), a "disease of
language" (Müller), or a misinterpretation of magical ritual (Frazer).


Recent approaches often view myths as manifestations of psychological, cultural, or societal truths, rather than as inaccurate historical accounts.
