- How to Do Things With Myths : A Performative Theory of Myths and How We Got There, Paperback by Strenski, Ivan, ISBN 1800504772, ISBN-13 9781800504776, Brand New, Free shipping in the US How to Do Things with Myths assembles a radically updated collection of the author's oft-cited publications on myth. Together, they tell how theories of myth have changed and led to a novel "performative" theory of myth. Beginning from its mid-19th-century foundations, myths had been conceived in textual terms as quasi-biblical, static narratives. Not until the impact of ethnographic studies of traditional societies in the early 20th century did myths come to be regarded in situ as living agents shaping their societies.
