The article analyzes the narrative and musical structure of DreamWorks' How to Train Your Dragon, highlighting the mechanisms that foster its internal coherence. The main hypothesis is based on the idea that this structural coherence enhances the work's predictability and memorability for the audience. Through an approach that integrates neuroscience, the study specifically examines the central theme of flight and friendship, whose treatment by John Powell ensures a perfect synergy between music and narrative. The analysis of key scenes, such as Test Drive and Forbidden Friendship, reveals a musical organization that supports and intensifies the story. The results suggest that How to Train Your Dragon relies on solid structural principles, ensuring the unification of both narrative and musical discourse.

Recent archaeological research has revealed the appearance among the eastern Slavs, in the VlIIth-Xth centuries, of two types of proto-urban dwellings : tribal centres (for instance Revno, Polotsk, Dobrinovcy and Izborsk) and emporia (Ladoga, Timirevo and Gnezdovo). The former, by far the most numerous, result from the internal evolution of the slav society. The entrance of eastern Europe in the international exchange System explains the formation of the later. They are, indeed, large commercial trading posts, where the presence of alien elements, some scandinavian, is noted. The emporia will disappear during the Xth century, with the alteration of the great commercial routes.
