In the ancient order of the world, man was integrated into society, but also into the components that made up the universe. There was an empathic spirit-temporal complementarity. Later, the secular order fragmented such an essential unity. A dehumanized individual emerged because reason "substituted" in an inadequate way for imagination, causing impoverishment. The demythologization and disenchantment of the world by a techno and anthropocentric knowledge that focuses exclusively on the rational, requires a re-humanization, the revaluation of the knowledge of a culture of meaning. This is achieved through dialogue, conversation and balance, without the imposition of rigid structures. Many keys to Western identity and reason rest on mythology, a factor that should motivate the recognition of the presence of mythical impulses in our culture.Its revaluationwill be what helps to consolidate an anthropoetics that is humanly linked to the rest of society and nature. The relationship between me and you would take on its affective and cooperative background. Consequently, it is a matter of unravelling essentialisms without relativizing them, of spreading the dynamic relationality that balances and harmonizes the opposites: complexio oppositorum of logos and myth. In short, those dehumanizing aspects of the logos and its unidirectionality lacking in imagination, must be associated with the image and the spectrum of human emotions.
