The three-volume "Philosophy of Symbolic Forms" is the outstanding work in which Cassirer transformed traditional transcendental philosophy into cultural philosophy. Instead of purely rational cognition, which has always been given primacy in modern philosophy, there is the plurality of symbolic forms in which a specific spontaneity of the human mind is expressed. The second part of the "Philosophy of Symbolic Forms" deals with the philosophical analysis of the form of myth from the standpoint of the system of spiritual expressions. The structural view aims at a determination of both the peculiar sense and the boundary of this form. In contrast to the widespread prejudice of objective nullity and thus irrelevance for philosophy, according to Cassirer the myth has a special meaning.
