Myth Truer Than History is a book written by Alvin Boyd Kuhn, exploring the concept of mythology and its significance in understanding the human experience. Kuhn argues that myths are not mere fictions, but rather a reflection of universal truths and archetypes that are deeply embedded in the human psyche. He suggests that myths offer a more accurate and profound understanding of reality than historical accounts, which are often limited by their reliance on empirical evidence and linear narratives. The book delves into various mythological traditions from around the world, including those of Egypt, Greece, and India, and examines their relevance to contemporary society. Kuhn's writing is insightful and thought-provoking, challenging readers to rethink their assumptions about the nature of truth and the role of mythology in human culture. Overall, Myth Truer Than History is a fascinating exploration of the power of myth and its enduring relevance to the human experience.THIS 42 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Who is this King of Glory?, by Alvin Boyd Kuhn.
