Ensayo del ano 2015 en eltema Literatura contemporanea - Literatura comparada, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Materia: Filologia alemana, Idioma: Espanol, Resumen: Birth, development and specific function of myth, consider to attempt to display human successes and failures. That their most fruitful periods are marked by major confrontations and tribal displacement, is no coincidence. The greater the uncertainty, the stronger the desire for answers. The romanticizing of myth over the last centuries, has camouflaged its true physiological sources. Running away from pain and finding something better, is the engine of all migration. Therefore, the stories told by nomadic shepherds, poets, warriors, hopeless beings, have become legends, by singing every victory and every defeat human intellect, passing through a hostile world. Literary Anthropology, instincts, emotions, stories and pictures. Nacimiento, desarrollo y funcion especifica del mito atienden a un intento de visualizacion de los exitos y fracasos humanos. Que sus periodos mas fructiferos esten marcados por grandes confrontaciones y desplazamientos tribales no es casualidad. A mayor incertidumbre mas anhelo de respuestas. La romantizacion a lo largo de los siglos ha camuflado su verdadera fuente fisiologica. Huir del dolor y optimizacion de la vida es su motor. Asi, historias contadas por nomadas, pastores, poetas, guerreros, seres desahuciados, han compuesto leyendas que cantan cada victoria del intelecto humano, y cada derrota, a su paso por un mundo hostil."
