Abstract
The reading of two short stories published in nineteenth-century Spain lifts the veil on the resonance of legends and myths in writing. The romantic Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer and the realist Benito Pérez Galdós analyse the ways and systems of thinking of their fellow citizens by projecting their visions of the world through a rewriting, for the former, of a legend about the return of souls on All Saints' Day in El Monte de las Ánimas, and for the latter, of the myth of Don Juan in El Don Juan.
