- 5. Mass culture&mythological mind
• The ontological model of mass culture mythology,
deriving from treatment of myth as cultural universal,
can be deduced to several principles of organization
and structuring of mass culture in integral
semiosphere.
• Those principles reveal themselves in the four main
ontological aspects of mass culture mythology:
peculiar reason-consequential linkage,
anthropocentricity, specific mythological chronotope
and “naming” as habitualization.

contemporary forms and can be re-coded within
new context in purpose.
3. Specific mythologemes can be used in show-
business in order to build coherent images of
artists.
