Abstract

Poetry, legends, myths are transmitters of traditions and language in the Indo-European world. They had determined the common values, images and categories that later formed the culture of these peoples. By examining the heritage of the Indo-Europeans we can identify the common structures in languages, the archetypes, the values of culture, which formed the mind and the evolution of these nations. Based on the analysis of the concepts “king” and “hero”, this article examines the interpretation of these matters in the modern art.
