Page "Christian mythology" Paragraph 14
from
Wikipedia
According to Mircea Eliade, the Middle Ages witnessed " an upwelling of mythical thought " in which each social group had its own " mythological traditions ".
Often a profession had its own " origin myth " which established models for members of the profession to imitate ; for example, the knights tried to imitate Lancelot or Parsifal.
The medieval trouveres developed a " mythology of woman and Love " which incorporated Christian elements but, in some cases, ran contrary to official church teaching.
