Prolegomene la un bestiar mitologic al basmului fantastic românesc (IV). Lupul

  • Subiect: Prolegomena to a mythological bestiary of the Romanian fantastic fairy tale (IV). The wolf From the start it must be said that the wolf has, at the imaginary levei, a prestigious mythological file. The certain mythical dimension that he has gained in time and due to various reasons, the wolf has led to the birth of some of the most diverse cultural products. The imaginative contents (starting from such realities), infinitely more complex than the nuances, discovered and mythanalized in this study, developed in time a number of ideas, beliefs, and myths about this animal in time. In the present study, continuing the mythological bestiary studies already published about Romanian fairy tales (bear; stag; snake), we tried to surprise and encompass all the imagery generated and reserved for the wolf. Thus, starting from the situations and the mentions from classical mythology, passing through the area of the myth folklore dossier dedicated to the wolf, we arrived with the analysis in the fantastic epic fantasy area, the desideratum being to discover not only the iconic-symbolic dimension but also the real-ethnological dimension of this animal. And the scenarios, myths and the subjective-objective forms in which we found the wolf in the fantastic Romanian fairytale (pendant of traditional beliefs, animal-totem, the presence of magic lycanthropic rituals, etc.), illustrates once again the important symbolic and cultural role played by this animal, with echoes up to the postmodern times of our day.
