Mircea Eliade reflects on the connection between man and space, on man’s involvement in cosmic processes. Myth in modern society is not equivalent to myth in “traditional” society. Something from the previous mythological perception is lost irretrievably. Mircea Eliade is sure that myth is not subject to the flow of calendar time, it exists in a different time dimension, the dimension of the sacred.The book’s text has been translated from the original language using an artificial intelligence system.
