TOWARDS A NON-MYTHICAL READING OF MYTHICAL-SYMBOLIC NARRATIVES: notes in the light of mythical epistemology according to Marià Corbí

Main Article Content

Abstract

This communication is part of the proponent's doctoral research and presents the perspective of Marià Corbí's axiological epistemology discipline on the role of mythical-symbolic narratives originated in the religious traditions of pre-industrial societies. Based on the premise that the mythical-symbolic system is a modeling of reality, it is asked how these narratives are structured and what relationship they establish with the programming of the way of life of human groups in the light of Corbian discipline, building a response course in three points. The first point is the dual anthropological foundation from the understanding that the human being is a linguistic animal. The second point is related to the presentation, according to the Corbian discipline, that myths and symbols function as structures of collective programming that configure the thinking, feeling, acting, and organization of people. Mythologies for Marià Corbí are the expression of activities central to the survival of human communities and engender stories that sustain the customs and habits of the social group. Finally, it is highlighted that if myths functioned as programmers, by failing to configure social life, they can be read from a non-mythical perspective.
