Prima della scienza, prima della religione, c'è il mito. Modo ingenuo - ci dicono -, modo fantasioso, spregiudicato e prescientifico, di spiegare l'origine delle cose e degli uomini, gli usi i costumi e le leggi. Filologia, etnografia, antropologia hanno lacerato il velo del mito, evidenziandone le radici ideologiche, il retroterra di superstizione e di magia. Ma i miti, così dissezionati, ci vengono restituiti alla stregua di freddi reperti anatomici, buoni tuttalpiù per qualche museo.

Death was the only thing keeping me alive. He watches me from his corner, taunts me with sweet messages, marks my body with his touch as I sleep. He took the people that I love away from me.
