Summary/Abstract: In this chapter, I investigate a specific aspect of the relationship between literature and social sciences. I believe that the insights of a novelistic imagination become translated into popular culture and, in this way, reach social practices. Thus, social sciences need to pay attention to this process as it constitutes an important part of the circle of representation and formation that connects literature with social practices.
