Abstract

O MITO AMAZÔNICO DE HONORATO E CANINANA: UM JEITO BRASILEIRO DE EXPLICAR O SYZYGY

RESUMO

 

Este ensaio explora o significado dos arquétipos Anima e Animus através do mito amazônico de Honorato e Caninana. Os mitos são narrativas arquetípicas e, como tal, têm uma natureza arbitrária. Alguns dos mitos são classificados como cosmológicos, pois descrevem a criação de novos mundos como novas realidades. O mito de Honorato e Caninana se enquadra nessa categoria e os mesmos motivos encontrados nesse mito também foram encontrados em outros mitos em todo o mundo antigo. Esse ensaio também destaca a importância dos mitos como uma ferramenta terapêutica.

Keywords: Mitos. Amazonia. Arquétipos. Terapia.
