Abstract
The paper deals with the Catalan author Salvador Espriu (1913–1985), who interpreted ancient myths in his works “Phaedra”, “Antigone” and “The Story of Esther” from a new point of view. The subject of the study was the analysis of the story “Phaedra”, the dramas “Antigone” and “The Story of Esther”, as a result of which we determine how the mythological heritage of the past was transformed and which models of myth transformation were used by Salvador Espriu in these texts. The work also examines the incorporation of ancient and Old Testament myths into the historical and political context of the 30–40s of the twentieth century.
