Abstract

Mythical, Literary and historical narratives hold in common the search for meaning and transcendence, humanizing time and the world. Their similarities and interdependencies lie in Mircea Eliade’s analyses of myth and in the relationship between Paul Ricoeur’s literary and historical narratives and the notions of configuration and reconfiguration. In addition, the analyses made by historians about sensibilities, subjectivities, popular catholicism and memory are all applied to the aforementioned Élis tale.
