Abstract

In mythology, there is no single author or narrative. Additionally, it is unclear where a story begins and ends. The beginning and ending, the time frameTime frames (see Definition 11.1 ), of a story is of vital importance. For example, consider the epic battle of Troy. In this story, there are at least three points at which the story can end. If only the text of The Iliad by Homer is examined, then the Greeks win and Troy is destroyed. If we include The Odyssey by Homer and The Oresteia by Aeschylus, then the Greeks are also destroyed by the war. Another possibility is to end with The Aeneid by Virgil, where the Trojan refugees go on to establish Rome, which then in turn dominates and conquers Greece. While these works all look at events related to the Trojan War, the time frame of each text is different. Thus, the beginning and ending points reveal different winners and losers in the war.
