En 'De los arquetipos y leyendas', Julio Caro Baroja explora la relación entre la historia, la literatura y las leyendas, argumentando que la historia es un reflejo de lo real, influenciada por la palabra y la ficción. Analiza cómo las figuras históricas son moldeadas por las narrativas populares y las expectativas culturales, deformando la realidad para ajustarse a modelos preexistentes de héroes. Este estudio examina la actividad verbal que subyace a los relatos históricos y literarios, revelando cómo se apartan de la realidad con la intención de reflejarla tal como es percibida.
