These
narratives are not myths in the sense that fables would
|
|
|
be
(not even the Christian narrative). Of course, like myths,
|
|
|
they
have the goal of legitimating social and political
|
|
|
institutions
and practices, laws, ethics, ways of thinking.
|
|
|
Unlike
myths, however, they look for legitimacy, not in an
|
|
|
original
founding act, but in a future to be accomplished, that
|
|
is, in an Idea
to be realised.
