Abstract
This essay deals with explorations of the ‘mythical’ thought in Lévi-Strauss’s most significant book – The savage mind. ‘Savage’ thought (or ‘mythical’ thought) is logic of mind which is inherent to every human being, and as such it determines all human societies. Anthropology should reveal unconscious structure in which institutions and customs are rooted. Unconscious activity of mind dictates forms to the content. One of the key assumptions is that those forms are basically the same to all people – ancient and contemporary, primitive and civilized – and it calls for revelation of unconscious structure which determines every institution and custom.
Keywords
Claude Lévi-Strauss; structure; unconscious activity of mind; universal logic of mind; social institutions; form and content; ‘savage’ thought (‘mythical’ thought); ‘tainted’ thought
