The Deconstruction of Mythical Founding Narratives. A study of Chris Beckett’s "Dark Eden"

The text The Deconstruction of Mythical Founding Narratives. A study of Chris Beckett’s “Dark Eden” brings up a critic of the novel which in a way deconstructs three main Old Testa-ment narratives of the Judaic-Greek-Christianity culture: exile from Eden, the history of Moses, and the return to the Promised Land. The author step by step demonstrates how Beckett per-forms the deconstruction and what are the implications for the mythological reading of the Bi-ble, the arousing problem of narration, and its philosophical or anthropological nature.
