Faust, a Myth of Modernity
Myth is a living entity that develops and grows by embracing interpretations, suggestions, and reinterpretations, in what Hans Blumenberg calls a true epigenesis. The multiple forms of narrative, typical of modernity, feed on myth and continuously regenerate it, rewriting it from various perspectives—religious, social, aesthetic, political, or pop—according to the times, up to the post-modern.

The process of coming out is often framed as a moment of self-realization, a turning point where individuals gain profound insight into their sexual orientation or gender identity. This panel seeks to explore how literature, film, television, and video games depict the mental, psychological, and emotional processes that LGBT individuals undergo as they recognize and articulate their identities.
Although initially dismissed as “a holiday from history” (Will), a “frivolous if not decadent decade” (Rich), and a “time of trivial pursuits” (Halberstam) (cf. Chollet and Goldgeier 2008), the 1990s have increasingly been recognized as a pivotal historical moment. Scholars have underscored its defining impact, with Wegner characterizing the decade as “life between two deaths,” framed by the end of the Cold War and the events of 9/11 (2009).

The 1516 German Purity Law (Reinheitsgebot) limited the ingredients of beer to barley, hops, and water. Yet, this restriction overlooks the invisible and essential agent behind fermentation: yeast. Only centuries later was yeast recognized as the microorganism that drives fermentation. Prior to its discovery, fermentation was often attributed to divine or spontaneous forces, with no understanding of the microbiological agents at play.
