Summary/Abstract: By using the example of the “Festino di Santa Rosalia” festivity in Palermo this essay presents ways of rendering religious scenarios (e.g. myth, rite) topical within a current political and social context. The last part of the text attempts to justify the necessity of including ethnography (conceived as a research method) into the framework of the interpretation theory proposed by G. Vattimo.
