Search Custom Search Recherche sur Amazon.fr RED JIM- Nathalie Jean-Bart- French-English Cheerful Madness' links Moussa et David- Maurice Rajsfus Z�bre- David B Le chien � trois pattes- Farid Boudjellal | De la perduration des mythes Sunday. 1.6.08 10:17 am Ct�sias de Cnide (une ancienne ville grecque situ�e en Anatolie, r�put�e pour ses m�decins) �tait un m�decin et un historien grec, entr� au service d' Artaxerx�s II, le roi de Perse, qu'il a d'ailleurs accompagn� en campagne contre son fr�re Cyrus le Jeune, en 401 av. J.-C. Sa date de naissance et de mort sont inconnus mais il a exist� pendant le Ve si�cle av. J.-C et est mort apr�s 398 av. J.-C, date � laquelle il quitte le service d' Artaxerx�s II. Ct�sias a clairement connu beaucoup de succ�s dans sa carri�re, au service d'une famille royale et il a pu voyager et �crire des comptes-rendus de ses p�r�grinations � l'�tranger. Mais Ct�sias, � mes yeux, a �t� aussi l'un des plus grands fabricateurs de bobards, plus fantasmagoriques, �difiants et d�lirants les uns que les autres, qui aient jamais exist� sur Terre. Le contexte d'alors s'y pr�tait encore mieux qu'aujourd'hui et il aurait eu tort de s'en priver. Ct�sias est, entre autres, l'auteur d'un ouvrage ayant pour titre "L'Histoire de l'Inde", ou il �num�re une collection de cr�atures fabuleuses, sens�es peupler le Sous-Continent: on doit � Ct�sias d'avoir ainsi propag� le mythe de la licorne, des Cynoc�phales, de la manticore et des Sciapodes, pour ne nommer que quelques uns des monstres qui allaient hanter l'imaginaire occidental pendant des mill�naires... Pour sa d�fense, parce que ces �tres fantastiques ont nourri notre part de r�ves, de cr�ativit� et de fantasmes qui nous sont finalement si ch�res, Ct�sias aurait simplement mal compris des animaux ou des pratiques qui lui auraient �t� d�crits: ainsi la licorne serait bas�e sur le rhinoc�ros indien, effectivement pourvu d'une seule corne et qui existe r�ellement, re-imagin� par les esprits de ce temps, faute d'appareil photo... Le mythe �tait accept� d�s lors comme une r�alit� parce qu'inv�rifiable par la majorit� du public et �manant de personnages qui faisaient figure d'autorit�s en la mati�re. Ceci �tant dit, je doute fort que Ct�sias ait fait du tort � qui que ce soit en racontant n'importe quoi sur l'Inde � l'�poque. Il est int�ressant de noter que la possibilit� de raconter n'importe quoi parce que l'information demeure inaccessible et inv�rifiable pour la grande majorit� du public est toujours pr�sente de nos jours. L'Internet, qui permet la propagation de mythes urbains par exemple, est le premier exemple qui vient � l'esprit mais les media conventionels (la radio, la presse �crite, la t�l�vision, etc) rapportent aussi des mythes, invent�s � la seule fin de justifier les actions de certains gouvernements ou organisations. La seule consolation(?) de nos jours est que souvent le mythe ainsi cr�� n'a plus la possibilit� de perdurer pendant 2000 ans. Comment!

The lion's combination of ferocity and enormous strength didn't fail to appeal to patriarchal cultures and societies, being naturally sympathetic and attracted to violence as a way to gain status, power and material gain. The lion therefore came to embody virility. But what can be said of the lioness? Did she come to embody feminity in the same way as the lion came to embody manly virtues?
