| Summary: | In this article we deal with the topic of the condition, as it is present in the myth of the descent into Hades of Orpheus in search of Eurydice, in three stories by Charles Perrault. Through this topic, we investigate the nature of the original condition as well as the transformations of the characters that execute it or that suffer it. We emphasize that fairy tales recreate the axes of myth, music, death and love, and manifest a vision of the world in which the idea of anabasis and rebirth predominates based on the premise of self-knowledge. We conclude that the mythical motive articulates the stories as an intertext, even when the variants of the author modify plot and relationships. |
