Cover of Karl-Joachim Hölkeskamp & Stefan Rebenich: Phaethon (PDF)

Welche Bedeutung besitzt ein antiker Mythos in der (Post-) Moderne? Spuren der Erzählung vom tragischen Himmelsstürmer Phaëthon reichen bis in die Archaik der Griechen zurück. Der Mythos wurde breit in Literatur und Kunst aufgenommen und fand seinen Weg in die Geschichte der Mobilität: Phaëthon hießen im 18. Jahrhundert elegante Sportkutschen und am Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts Automobile der Luxusklasse. Die interdisziplinäre Dresdner Tagung verfolgt die Konjunkturen des antiken Mythos von den Anfängen bei Hesiod bis in die Gegenwart. In Politik, Kunst, Musik und in der Literatur entdecken die Beiträge das Kapital eines Mythos, der tief im kollektiven Gedächtnis verankert ist.
