Summary/Abstract: The myth narrates a sacred event, a primordial event, a fabulous story about the origins of the universe or about something that happened for real. The myth always refers to a creation by narrating how a thing came into being and was transmitted from one age to the next. The characters of the myth are gods, fantastic beings, timeless heroes, immortals and not human beings. The literature takes from mythology themes and symbols, ideas, images, the possibility of creative expressions and fee thinking. In the literary myths the writers assume various liberties related to ’’hypo text’’. They can take certain sequences from a myth, they can redefihne the myth according to the ideas and also, they have the liberty to innovate starting from the myth source.
