Summary/Abstract: In this article, it is shown how it is possible to reinterpret mythology in an opera so that it is directly or indirectly but causally linked with the plot of an opera. It is about what kind of identification it can be if we take into consideration catharsis or neo-catharsis with reference to plot differentiation between opera seria and opera buffa, explanation of individual characters in opera today, how we can perceive them and what they refer to. It was also necessary to try to connect the initial need to tackle mythology to explain the development of the opera which resulted in national operas/themes and symbolical use of rituals/ritual – related matters.
