New page

There is a certain ironic humor in the subsidizing, by Minister of Culture, of a children's book [Dutch comic 'De avonturen van Lena Lena' by Harriët van Reek] which appears to contain the plot for a drama against which his colleague, the Minister of Justice, has been angrily fulminating. Am amusing story for children - it seems children, around four, never tire of hearing and seeing precisely that episode where a stick is poked "a little way up Mie's backside" - grew into a sinister myth in Oude Pekela [Dutch town]. Myths can be fatal. They fulfill a deeply felt need when the effects of economic, technological and social change undermine traditional certainties. Most of them deal with chaos and conflict and how these can be exorcised; often they are misused to legitimize power over one's fellow men. [...] The mythological inheritance has to be maintained, since otherwise the hard-won solidarity will be lost. [...]
