Rezumat:This paper entails the sacred mytification motif, a subject hardly debated, but extremely challenging, that we can identify in several myths and episodes of the ancient Greek mythology literature (Thanatos-Sisyphus myth, Sirens-Odysseus or Sirens-Orpheus myth, Polifem-Odysseus myth, Gorgo Medusa-Perseus myth, etc.). Our essay starts from the general thesis that a direct confrontation with the Sacred is essentially impossible, making the Sacred almost always manipulated (cf. R. Caillois, R. Girard, M. Eliade). It is also the reason why, in our opinion, the Greek Sacred is defined mostly as hagios (“forbidden for people to touch it ”) than hieros (“inspired by divine grace”). This mystification or manipulation of the Sacred manifests in the examples mentioned above as linking (paralysis) or avoidance, as incantation or spell, as drinking, as replacement or blindness, but often, it involves an intermediate recognized as a sacrificed animal, in a defence element (such as shield, mirror, eye, wall, rampart, or the appearance of armor-(divine) gift or armor-disguise.
We believe that the tendency of handling sacred is in fact due to the natural human impulse of socializing with this unknown, scary, monstrous Sacred in the etymological sense.
