Rezumat: | The notion of ‘reality’ should be understood as a ‘world image’ or Weltanschauung and is not to be taken for the unique truth about the world. In spite of nowadays scientific explanations of ‘reality’, the mechanism of building up the image of the world has remained unchanged, as it does not follow objective, impersonal, homogenous criteria, but a heterogeneous perception of time and space, which are considered from an individual centre of psychological subjectivity and cultural memory. Being subject to change in time and space, ‘reality,’ as ‘a true story’ can be defined as a descriptive, cognitive model for identification, in the same terms in which Mircea Eliade defined myth. By analyzing the relation between the individual and the collective character of the ‘world image’ of different communities in terms of myth-formation, this study envisages the fact that ‘reality’ has always been a sort of a ’built up’ image, or ’installation’, an officially accepted narration about reality, converging a meaning. The same is valid for history as science, in which the relation of continuity: past-present-future is established according to the aim of the narration in which selected facts are used. |
