Myths are not real, they are fantasy, they are made by people to explain misunderstood things in the natural world. Legends on the other hand, are most of the time over exaggerated stories of simi-true events that MAY have taken place. Visual metaphors are <span>the representation of a person, place, thing, or idea by means of a </span>visual<span> image that suggests a particular association or point of similarity. And beliefs, are the misconception that any or all of the things I just listed are true when they are mostly not. Beliefs include the belief of god, gods, higher power, cloud-chiefs, morality, karma, string theory, and the biggest of all, human intelligence. As for why they tie so much to artistic inspiration, they are all FULL of imagination, Mythology is extensive a.f, religion cuts deep, legends inspire with awe, and beliefs make it all seem that much more real. You're welcome. </span>
Myths are fantastic stories, usually with supernatural figures such as gods or monsters, which serve to explain certain facts through metaphors and symbolism.
Legends, on the other hand, are accounts of historical events and people of antiquity. Therefore, they are based on a certain historical moment. But these stories are distorted or exaggerated, and they look fantastic.
Visual metaphors are used by the authors to convey story situations through images, without using verbal text. When the character is nervous, smoke comes out of his head.
Belief represents that you believe in something or the possibility of something. Belief is greater than knowledge, although knowledge tends to become a belief over time.
Some theories of culture strive to "demythologize," that is, to exclude myths and images in their investigations. But there are others who say, "Myth is important, it is fundamental to understanding culture." The myth relates to the human capacity to give meaning to "being" and its existence in the world. This ability we all have to work out a vision of the world and of itself through myth has been named “mitopoiesis” by the French scholar Gilbert Durand [French mythologist]. From this perspective, myths are elaborate forms of the imaginary, or myth is a dynamic system of symbols, of archetypes.
Metaphors, as well as analogies and concept maps, are types of reasoning with great creative potential. Several contemporary studies on the nature of human conceptual systems point to the cognitive strength of metaphor. Holyoak & Thagard, for example, in the book Mental Leaps: Analogy in Creative Thought, tell how metaphors are used in poetic language to talk about complex affective issues. In addition, metaphors are present at various other times in everyday life, as structures that organize many of our thoughts and actions.
In 1826/27, using a camera obscura fitted with a pewter plate, Niépce produced the first successful photograph from nature, a view of the courtyard of his country estate, Gras, from an upper window of the house.
