The use of literary and rhetorical criticism – paired with philosophy, cultural studies, media arts, psychology, and communication studies – they illustrate the serve as, value, and role of recent mythologies, and show that the universal appeal of those texts is their mythic power, drawing upon archetypes of the past which resonate with individuals and right through culture.
