The myth mentions the human condition as a whole, its history transmitted first orally and often embodied by a hero, a place or a community. interview myths is interested heroes and stories based collective identity. the universal myth can highlight the particular way in which each performer cultural area of human experience and built works to express it.

Each time borrows some myths and updates or creates new ones. the hero may be a fictional or real who scored the tradition, history and everyday life.

Popular culture and culture-cons stop producing their own heroes (folklore, comics, etc..).

Spaces and exchanges A company can be approached from the point of view of its cohesion and its opening,which raises questions about its inclusion in the world.

Geography circuits commercial and networks of influence , but also the discovery and conquest of land new cultural areas that are often beyond the borders.

The border as a boundary between two spaces is sometimes seen as protection against the other or otherwise opening and appeal to a larger space.

The space can evolve and various contours : reappropriation of symbolic spaces , loss of bearings in worlds cities , invention of new trade models , creation of large sets regional real spaces , virtual spaces .

Today we see that despite a high inequality at the developments, the world has never been so integrated as links of any kind between peoples and countries have become close .

Exchanges of all kinds, "Borrowings" from language to language , culture to culture, literature , arts , sciences, techniques , philosophy, religion, political and social institutions and generally in everyday use , took a new dimension in the unification of spaces and peoples, languages ​​and worldviews.
