The present research deals with the relation between history and fiction in the work of Paul Ricoeur (1913-2005). We found in his texts the Aristotelian terms of mímesis and mŷthos, here translated as imitation and plot composition, witch let us comprehend history as a creation that represents life, a composition whose content is a fictional representation of the absent. From this history conception, as a poetic narrative about the past, we searched what elements would be different and common between history and fiction. Our start was the Jean- Paul Sartre (1905-1980) book called A náusea (1938), that suggests the narration of life as impossible. By this point, we found in the Ricoeur thesis of entrecruzamento a proposition different of Sartre’s, because it considers history as a fictional narrative that has elements by which we can know about the past. From this partial conclusion, we treated the problem of living and telling, through the MacIntyre (1929) conception of unity narrative of life, in relation with the Ricoeur concept of identidade narrativa. From this relation, we suggest a alternative way between living as a story, as MacIntyre, and living without meaning, as Sartre, that is a dialectic that implies life and narrative as complementary.
