This chapter focuses on the ways in which literary narrative may be seen to sustain social myths. By showing how literature may nourish social myths, I seek to show how narrative is a means to create new forms of material life, indeed, a means of production of material reality. Social myth has been theorised by Georges Sorel as a form of experience in which narrative subjects join the subject of action. The subject of action or social agent uses myth to devise for him/herself a guide to action. The guide to action derived from the myth consists in images one forms for oneself before action in the material reality. Living the myth in one's thought and actions, one is changed utterly through the enrichment of one's identity as it is refigured through the myth.
