Mito y religión en Grecia: aspectos metodológicos

Abstract

The author of the paper tries to draw attention to those methodological aspects that should be taken into account before studying the possible relationship between religion and myth. In this way an approach to the myth definition problem, in general, and among the Greeks, in particular is previous to any other question. Secondly, it is necessary to reflect on the different aspects that the Greek religion presents with the help of the facts that the fenomenology of religion gives us. Finally several examples, where the close relationship between the mythic tales and some religious cults and festivals is shown, are suggested.
