Porządek wśród mitów według Mircei Eliadego
Order amid myths

Summary/Abstract: This article is an attempt at presenting Mircea Eliade’s classification of myths. Despite the fact that the Romanian scholar did not attach great importance to the formal definition of the myth, both his definition and classification of myths reveal a very interesting structure of the mythical vision of the world. It contains a peculiar logic which substantially differs from the logic of the myth as described by Levi-Strauss. Unlike the French scholar, Eliade is not concerned with the grammar of the myth but with its immanent content and with the mythical vision of the world.
