Paganism In Our Own Image: The Modern Mythology of the Pagan's Last Stand (original) (raw)

The paper explores the transition from polytheism to monotheism, focusing on how modern interpretations of pagan mythology have evolved. It argues that while contemporary society exhibits a fascination with pagan myths, this engagement often reflects more on current cultural perceptions than on historical accuracy. The text examines the historical context of paganism's decline, referencing significant events and figures that influenced this transformation, ultimately questioning whether our understanding of paganism today resembles an accurate portrayal or a modern construct.
