Myth, Mind and Religion

The French anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss scoured the Amazon forest for the myths of its primitive peoples. He found that a certain logic governed the construction of these myths-his mythologique; he regarded this logic as innate in the human mind and thus universal.

Antropologul francez Claude Levi-Strauss a cercetat padurea amazoniana pentru miturile popoarelor sale primitive. El a descoperit ca o anumita logica guverneaza constructia acestor mituri - mitologica sa; el considera aceasta logica ca innascuta in mintea umana si, astfel, universala.
