- Abstract
This article is dedicated to the study of inversion of basic ethical categories – “good” and “evil” – in modern culture, especially in artistic works. The authors analyze the phenomenon of religious fantasy as an element of religious mythology, and also try to justify the attractiveness of a cultural hero endued with negative ethical connotations. The article continues the series of reflections on ontological and ethical grounds for the category of “religious mythology”
