On August 23, 1942, Hitler's 16th Panzer Division halted on the banks of the Volga. To their right, the city of Stalingrad blazed from the first of General von Richthofen's air raids, which ultimately killed 40,000 civilians. Many German soldiers thought the war against Russia was won. But in Stalin's namesake city on the Volga, Hitler had chosen the wrong target. The battle of Stalingrad would be the most pitiless, and perhaps the most important, battle in history. When the fighting was over, the world would begin to believe for the first time that Hitler could be defeated

Los ensayos que componen este libro estudian la presencia del mito en diferentes textos y sugieren reflexiones a partir de los materiales literarios y artísticos en los que se inscriben los mitos prehispánicos. Todos ellos trabajan con una idea no reductiva de mito, que no lo limita a los relatos, sino que considera la presencia de los mismos en relación con las cosmogonías o las cosmovisiones, las actitudes filosóficas y de pensamiento, la interacción con el mundo y hasta las subjetividades.
