Myth

A socially-sustained narrative whose currency is independent of its truth-value — a founding myth, an urban legend, a propaganda narrative, or a debunked claim that persists. GMEOW asserts no truth verdict on a myth (Principle 1); in-myth claims are scoped accordingTo an associated gmeow:NarrativeReferenceFrame. A myth is the abstract narrative (WEMI Work level); concrete tellings are linked via gmeow:hasMythTelling.
