| Summary | The article aims at describing the specific synthesis of religious, philosophical and artistic components in the structure of Myth as a form of artistic thinking of Vyacheslav Ivanov (1866-1949). Based on Losev�s methodology, the article demonstrates that the Russian symbolist�s innovation lies in his principles of mythological approach that enable to regard him as creating �absolute mythology� to present the symbolic structure of consciousness. | ||
