In Structural Anthropology 1, Levi-Strauss makes an important point in this regard. “Not onlySophocles, but Freud himself, should be included among the recorded versions of the Oedipus myth,on a par with earlier, or seemingly more ‘authentic’ versions” (217). Reconstructions of myths don’tfunction extrinsically or transcendently, as final ‘interpretations’, but operate immanently, recursively adding more skeins to the fictive webwork. If there is no outside of fiction, it is not because of some transcendental universal-textuality, but because fiction cannot be contained by texts; it is already Outside. (L.T.)
