BUSTOS, Nora Andrea. Consideration of the Myth as Constitutive of Human Design in the Work of Carlos Astrada. Estud. filos. práct. hist. ideas [online]. 2011, vol.13, n.1, pp.9-16. ISSN 1851-9490.

In this work I propose to show the utilization of the concept of myth in the Carlos Astrada´s work. First, I will analyze his early works where the philosopher finds in the Russian Revolution the expression of the humanity´s myth. Later, I will take in consideration his work El Mito Gaucho, which constitutes an interpretation of Martín Fierro as expression of the argentinien´s myth. Continuously, I will refer to the works in where Astrada extends his projection towards the whole Latin America looking for the mythological roots in the archaic cultures of our continent. Finally I will show the relation that he establishes between myth and Utopia in his last writings.

Palabras clave : Myth; Hero; Humanity; Destiny; Peak.
