Mythical beings are components of these stories; they are activated as opponents or as being interactive. Paradigmatic structure is built according to the model of oppositions: own-foreign; this world –that world; good – bad etc. The beauty of the Earth /E Bukura e Dheut is one of the most complex figures which arouses and inspires the hero of the tale to make sacrifices in order to reach her.
