Resumo(s)
O mito, sendo trilho para as potencialidades espirituais da vida humana, funciona como mediação simbólica entre o sagrado e o profano, surgindo como guia que acalma os espíritos mais descontentes com a realidade, ajudando-os a curar a sua ferida de existência. Reflexo da contracultura dos anos 60 nos Estados Unidos da América, Jim Morrison, vocalista do grupo The Doors, quis, através da sua música e das suas palavras, libertar as pessoas que julgava estarem presas a uma conformidade de normas sexuais e sociais, desempenhando, assim, o papel de xamane. Jim viveu intensamente e morreu cedo. Uma carreira curta e poderosa, que o consolidou como lenda viva, herói trágico. Analisando a complexidade do seu ser, verifica-se que reactualizou mitos ancestrais ao representar histórias de deuses e de heróis titânicos, tais como Dioniso, Édipo e Prometeu. Surge, assim, o mito do eterno retorno através da repetição de arquétipos. Numa cronologia sem tempo, contendo, porém, uma tonalidade nebulosa, Jim Morrison permanece no âmbito do eterno, remetendo para um tempo que não é histórico, mas cíclico. O mito de Jim Morrison perdura através da sua poesia, da sua música, da sua sepultura, da sua incessante audiência.
The myth, path for the spiritual potentialities of human life, acts as a symbolic mediation between the sacred and the profane, emerging as a guide that calm down the "spirits" more dissatisfied with the reality and help them to heal their wound of existence. Jim Morrison, lead singer of the band The Doors, is a reflection of the counterculture of the 60s in the United States of America. Through his music and his words, he wanted to free the people that he thought to be attached to sexual and social norms, performing thus the role of a shaman. Jim lived intensively and died young. He had a short and powerful career, that have consolidate his character of living legend, of tragic hero. When analyzing the complexity of his person, it is verified that he updated ancient myths by representing stories of gods and titanic heroes, such as Dionysus, Oedipus and Prometheus. It is in this way that emerges the myth of the eternal return, through the repeat of archetypes. In a chronology with no time but with a misty tone, Jim Morrison remains as eternal, referring to a time that is not historical but cyclical. The myth of Jim Morrison endures through his poetry, his music, his grave, his incessant audience.
