Definition: "The word
mythology (Greek:
μυθολογία "story-telling", from
μῦθος
muthos, "story, legend", and
λόγος
logos, "account , speech") refers to any body or cycle of myths –
stories linked to the spiritual or religious life in the
oral tradition of a
particular
culture, which often
involve
supernatural events or
characters to explain the nature of the universe and humanity. Mythology
is also branch of knowledge dealing with the collection, study and
interpretation of myths or fables. A myth consists of irreducible plot
elements identified as
archetypes or
mythemes and is not
identical to any specific wording or retelling.
C. S. Lewis identifies[1]Mythopoeia
as an art form distinct from
literature or
poetry."
