RT Article T1 Myth and the Schellingian Notion of Mythological Consciousness as a Basis of Narrative and Narrative Identity JF Studia religiologica VO 47 IS 4 SP 295 OP 305 A1 Filutowska, Katarzyna 1975- LA English YR 2014 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1761130161 AB The paper concerns the problem of the mythological origins of narrative and narrative identity. Referring to works of such narrative researchers as D. Carr, B. Williams and K. Atkins and to F.W.J. Schelling’s conception of a mythological consciousness, I prove that 1. ina narration - personal as well as collective (in a tale which constitutes given culture) - the type of necessity is similar to that which occurs in nature as well as in mythology (its higher potential) and which is responsible for a perfect story coherence that is unavailable in normal life and characteristic rather of art than of a usual experience; 2. although our personal narratives are shaped on the basis of a collective myth, they assume a first-person, reflective perspective, and this is the reason why an individual may in spite of such to some extent “untrue” origins keep personal freedom and autonomy.
