Abstract
The author attempts to apply an anthropological theory of heroship to analyze selected press narrations about the polish ski jumper – Adam Małysz. To find archaic patterns shaping the contemporary mythology, the author juxtapose relations about sportsman’s successes and archetypical images of heroes. This kind of comparison shows surprising analogies between the cultural image of Adam Małysz and the archaic paradigm of an epic warrior, who continuously search for new challenges increasing his fame.
