ABSTRACT

This article seeks to make considerations about the myth and its need for application to learning processes. Its scientific relevance lies in the fact that it discusses a theme that is, at the same time, historical, classic and epic, in a way that is committed to clarifying its imposition on life and human existence since time immemorial. Its social relevance lies in the fact that it brings to individuals an entire aesthetic that contributes to keeping the Myth alive and thriving in contemporary society, not losing its potency, even in the midst of all the technical-scientific advances that have been experienced. This is a bibliographical research, based on classic authors who deal with the subject. The analytical-synthetic method was also used, as this is a resource that best explores the internal and external causes of the target object of study. The myth corresponds to that situation of response to what is carried as doubt about the existence, the being of things, the universal condition of natural processes that are beyond human comprehension. The Mythós were created from everyday experiences that were gathered for specific purposes, becoming necessary at each specific time. There is no way to analyze the present, you simply see it and store it for later interpretations.

Keywords: Myth; Mythos; Physis; Phylogenetic and ontogenetic nature.
