The Hidden Architecture of Myth
Overview
Across the world, myth expresses how humans relate to reality, memory, and the unseen. This book traces the recurring structures that shape those expressions: the boundaries that define worlds, the guardians who enforce them, the layered realms that organise experience, and the journeys that carry meaning across thresholds. By comparing traditions from Mesopotamia, Greece, Egypt, Mesoamerica, Asia, and beyond, it reveals the underlying architecture that cultures use to make sense of existence. The underworld is only one example of this deeper pattern. The result is a study of myth as a human language-structured, coherent, and shared across time.
