Book Synopsis Religion and Myth in the Marvel Cinematic Universe by : Michael D. Nichols

Download or read book Religion and Myth in the Marvel Cinematic Universe written by Michael D. Nichols. This book was released on 2021-02-22. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breaking box office records, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has achieved an unparalleled level of success with fans across the world, raising the films to a higher level of narrative: myth. This is the first book to analyze the Marvel output as modern myth, comparing it to epics, symbols, rituals, and stories from world religious traditions. This book places the exploits of Iron Man, Captain America, Black Panther, and the other stars of the Marvel films alongside the legends of Achilles, Gilgamesh, Arjuna, the Buddha, and many others. It examines their origin stories and rites of passage, the monsters, shadow-selves, and familial conflicts they contend with, and the symbols of death and the battle against it that stalk them at every turn. The films deal with timeless human dilemmas and questions, evoking an enduring sense of adventure and wonder common across world mythic traditions.

This book collects the greatest myths and legends of the thunder god, while also explaining their historical context and their place in the greater Norse mythology.
