Abstract

Generalno gledajući, utjecaj krajobraza na društvo i način života je neupitan, no postavlja se pitanje da li i kako fizička okolina utječe na društvene konstrukte poput religije i mitologije. Starogrčko društvo je bilo društvo mitova, čineći religiju neotuđivim dijelom života, a mitove dijelom svakodnevice.
Iako je starogrčka mitologija prepoznatljiva po antropocentralističkim temama i karakteristikama mitova i bogova, krajobraz je služio kao mjesto radnje, pozadina ili inspiracija ovisno o upoznatosti starih Grka s područjem. Prostor i krajobraz nepoznat prosječnom Starom Grku se činio mističnim i opasnim, podložnim mitologizaciji, dok su dobro poznate karakteristike i ponašanja elemenata u krajobrazu služila kao inspiracija karakterizacije i stvaranja mitoloških likova. Zbog izrazite povezanosti društva i mitova, Stara Grčka je odabrana kao područje analize utjecaja krajobraza na mitologiju u svrhu diplomskog rada.

Abstract (english)

Generally speaking, the impact of landscape on society and lifestyle is undoubted, but the question arises whether and how the physical environment affects social constructs such as religion and mythology. Ancient Greek society was a society of myths, making religion an inalienable part of life, and myths a part of everyday life.
Although Greek mythology is recognizable by its anthropocentric characteristics of myths and gods, the landscape served as a setting, backdrop, or inspiration depending on the Greeks' familiarity with the area. The space and landscape unknown to the average Ancient Greek seemed mystical and dangerous, therefore susceptible to mythologizing, while the well-known characteristics and behaviors of elements in the landscape served as inspiration for the creation of mythological characters. Due to the distinct connection between society and myth, Ancient Greece was chosen as the area of analysis of the impact of landscape on mythology for the purpose of the thesis.
