Printed in Turkish, the book is an important classic study of comparative mythology, examining how myths emerged, evolved, and shaped the intellectual and cultural development of early human societies.\u003cspan aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"450\" data-end=\"861\"\u003eJohn Fiske, a prominent 19th-century philosopher, historian, and scholar of comparative religion, approaches mythology from an anthropological and historical perspective rather than purely literary analysis. In this work, he explores how ancient civilizations created myths to explain natural phenomena, cosmic events, religious beliefs, human origins, morality, and the unknown forces of the world around them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"863\" data-end=\"1223\"\u003eThe book investigates the symbolic structures and recurring patterns found across mythological traditions from different cultures. Fiske discusses how similar mythic themes — such as solar deities, flood myths, heroic figures, creation stories, and supernatural beings — appear repeatedly throughout human history despite geographical and cultural differences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1225\" data-end=\"1544\"\u003eParticular emphasis is placed on the relationship between language, early scientific understanding, religion, and mythology. Fiske examines how myths gradually developed through metaphorical interpretations of nature and how oral traditions transformed symbolic explanations into complex legendary narratives over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1546\" data-end=\"1863\"\u003eRather than treating myths as simple fantasy stories, the author presents them as reflections of humanity’s intellectual evolution and collective imagination. The work therefore occupies an important place in the early development of comparative mythology, anthropology, folklore studies, and the history of religion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1865\" data-end=\"2069\"\u003eThe book also explores how myths influenced literature, philosophy, national identity, and cultural memory across civilizations, demonstrating the lasting impact of mythological thinking on human culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2071\" data-end=\"2327\"\u003eFor readers interested in mythology, anthropology, comparative religion, folklore, and intellectual history, this Turkish edition represents a significant introduction to one of the foundational analytical works on myth formation and symbolic storytelling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(170, 26, 23);\"\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2344\" data-end=\"2364\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003e• Author: John Fiske\u003cspan aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2366\" data-end=\"2405\"\u003e• Original Title: Myths and Myth-Makers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2407\" data-end=\"2450\"\u003e• Turkish Title: Mitler ve Mitleri Yapanlar\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2452\" data-end=\"2478\"\u003e• Publisher: İlya Yayınevi\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2480\" data-end=\"2504\"\u003e• Publication Date: 2011\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2506\" data-end=\"2525\"\u003e• Language: Turkish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2527\" data-end=\"2546\"\u003e• Format: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2548\" data-end=\"2620\"\u003e• Genre: Mythology; Anthropology; Comparative Religion; Cultural History\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2622\" data-end=\"2690\"\u003e• Subject: Origins and development of mythology across civilizations\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2692\" data-end=\"2790\"\u003e• Literary Content: Comparative myth analysis; Creation myths; Heroic legends; Symbolic narratives\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2792\" data-end=\"2890\"\u003e• Themes: Human imagination; Religion; Nature symbolism; Language; Cultural memory; Myth formation\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2892\" data-end=\"2972\"\u003e• Academic Focus: Comparative mythology and early anthropological interpretation\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2974\" data-end=\"3061\"\u003e• Historical Importance: Classic 19th-century study on myth-making and symbolic culture\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3063\" data-end=\"3146\"\u003e• Educational Value: Introductory analytical work on mythology and folklore studies\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3148\" data-end=\"3238\"\u003e• Author Significance: Written by philosopher and comparative mythology scholar John Fiske\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3240\" data-end=\"3338\"\u003e• Cultural Importance: Examines how myths shaped early civilizations and collective belief systems\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3340\" data-end=\"3420\"\u003e• Collector Appeal: Turkish mythology and comparative religion reference edition\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turkrex Collectables","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49611419287690,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/3687\/7450\/files\/1_8daff43d-078a-4cc3-bb49-9eda88703b63.jpg?v=1782734849","url":"https:\/\/turkrexcollectables.com\/products\/john-fiske-myths-and-myth-makers-2011-turkish-book-turkey","provider":"Turkrex Collectables","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
