    This paper proposes an analysis of the relationship between myth and history in Marta Morazzoni’s literary work Il fuoco di Jeanne (2014), which should be considered a part of chronicle and biographical genre, rather than a historical novel. The narration follows the reconstruction of the journey of the protagonist and the parallel journey of the author who follows her steps. Countryside, roads and places visited by the author are marked by the presence of Joan of Arc and are often considered as key to the historical truth. The author problematises the facts which one of the most persistent French myths relies on (without wanting to overturn it), tracing an alternative version of the Joan of Arc’s life, and moves between myth and historical document, also proposing her own hypothesis. The omnipresent doubt and distance towards the official version of history are a common thread of this novel, in which the geographical space achieves a structural value for the narration and also makes visible the meaning of time. Thus our “reading” of the text follows Bachtin’s theory of the chronotope, considering the space, a witness of the historical events, inseparable from the time, and also tries to recognise its many symbolic meanings.Calata nell’episteme postmoderna, ma sempre un po\u27 restia ad abbracciare pienamente la tendenza stilistica del postmodernismo, Marta Morazzoni si è ritagliata una scrittura che evita forme di ostentata metanarrazione, pur lasciando cadere degli accenti sull’attività di costruzione del testo. Allo stesso tempo riprende anche motivi e strategie della prosa dei modernisti, e in particolare la ricerca di una forte dimensione psicologica del narrato con una preferenza quindi per un discorso basato sulla rifl essione piuttosto che sull\u27azione.V prispevku želimo pokazati, na kakšen način je odnos med mitom in zgodovino predstavljen v delu Il fuoco di Jeanne (2014) avtorice Marte Morazzoni, ki se žanrsko bolj kot v zgodovinski roman uvršča na področje med kroniko in biografijo. Gre za besedilo, katerega pripoved je zgrajena s pomočjo rekonstrukcije poti, na katero se poda protagonistka, ter vzporednega potovanja avtorice, ki sledi njenim stopinjam. Pokrajina, poti in kraji, ki jih obišče, so še vedno zaznamovani s prisotnostjo Ivane Orleanske in so pogosto razumljeni kot ključ do zgodovinske resnice. Avtorica problematizira dejstva, s katerimi se napaja eden najtrdnejših francoskih mitov (ne da bi ga pri tem želela izpodbiti), in pri tem snuje alternativno različico življenja Ivane Orleanske. Giblje se torej med mitom in dokumentom, med ljudskim verovanjem in zgodovinskimi dejstvi, pri tem pa dodaja lastne domneve. Vseprisoten dvom in kritična distanca do uradne historiografske različice sta rdeča nit tega dela, v katerem je prav geografski prostor ogrodje pripovedi in osvetli tudi pomen časa. Zato se nam ob »branju« besedila zdi smiselno slediti Bahtinovi teoriji kronotopa in videti prostor – pričo zgodovinskega dogajanja – neločljivo povezan s časom, ob tem pa skušati v njem razbrati tudi njegove simbolične vrednosti
