The narrative is constituted by the narrative form, by the content of the story and by its putting into circulation: and these are also the three parts that make up this essay of narratology. Through diagrams and figures, in addition to a selection of pieces of novellas and comics, which constitute the two appendices (in Italian), we tried to make complex concepts less abstract, with the aim of re-establishing the theory of storytelling.

This paper follows the stages that led to the casual discovery (in a certain way similar to a case of serendipity) of subjective synaesthesias and in particular investigates the French-Italian medical contribution, even though starting from a German academic document that is considered to be at the head of chain of references which, however, reveal themselves as a chain of equivocations (by doctors, before the historians). This investigation covers the crucial 70 years from the degree thesis of Sachs in 1812 to Pedronös article of 1882.
