U susret drugoj mitologiji. Porod od tmine: Jokastine kćeri i unuke<br>Towards the Other Mythology. The Offspring of Darkness: Jocasta’s Daughters and Granddaughters</br>

Abstract

The author presents the situation and tendencies in contemporary mythological research. The paper starts out from the mythos-logos antithesis and from the twofold conception of the myth as a fabricated and as a sacred story. On the basis of a review of Croatian and mainstream mythological trends, the author perceives two main orientations in mythological research: the historical reconstruction of the proto-Slavic myth, and research into the myth, mythic awareness and mythic language in contemporary everyday life.
