Clonarea - Blasfemie sau Binecuvantare? Structuri mitico-religioase, controverse etice si consecinte sociale/ Cloning: Blasfemy or Blessing? Mythical-religious Structures, Ethical Controversies and Social Consequences
Abstract
Starting as a scientific presentation of the phenomenon of cloning, in which etymology, the definitions and some already classical examples are emphasized, this paper actually focuses on a less discussed perspective in nowadays debates on cloning. Thus, the paper aims at showing which are (if any) the mythical-religious structures of cloning, certainly without ignoring the social consequences, the advantages and disadvantages and the juridical effects of cloning. Discussing Mircea EliadeĆs novella Les trois graces, the purpose of explaining the subtle reactivation of ancient mythical-religious phantasms by the means of a contemporary scientific experiment such as cloning is reached.
