mythogeography

Mythogeography is the study of how stories, legends, and cultural narratives shape our understanding and experience of specific places. It explores the ways myths and folklore influence the character and identity of locations, revealing how the stories we tell about a place can create a sense of meaning, history, and collective memory. By examining these narratives, mythogeographers uncover the deep connections between geography, culture, and storytelling, highlighting how the intangible stories embedded in landscapes influence our perception and relationship with the environment.
