Abstract:

A Lecture delivered for the Stout Centre's "Eminent Victorians" Centennial Series in the Council Chamber, Hunter Building at Victoria University on 31 March 1999. The author pays tribute to the late Sir John Salmond by discussing the role of "fiction" in law and in the thought of Sir John. The author notes the nature of fiction as a formidable force, as it facilitates provisional escape from the tyranny of apparent fact and forget about the suspensory nature of fiction. There are three types of "fictions" in the legal world: legislative fictions, whereby the world is refashioned in accordance

Abstract:

Abstract This paper critically analyzes the fiction-view of scientific modeling, which exploits presumed analogies between literary fiction and model building in science. The basic idea is that in both fiction and scientific modeling fictional worlds are created. The paper argues that the fiction-view comes closest to certain scientific thought experiments, especially those involving demons in science and to literary movements like naturalism. But the paper concludes that the dissimilarities prevail over the similarities. The fiction-view fails to do justice to the plurality of model types use

Abstract:

Fiction is vital to our being. Many people enjoy engaging with fiction every day. Here we focus on literary reading as 1 instance of fiction consumption from a cognitive neuroscience perspective. The brain processes which play a role in the mental construction of fiction worlds and the related engagement with fictional characters, remain largely unknown. The authors discuss the neurocognitive poetics model ( Jacobs, 2015a ) of literary reading specifying the likely neuronal correlates of several key processes in literary reading, namely inference and situation model building, immersion, mental

Abstract:

Science fiction employs a distinctive language to engage speculatively yet critically with our contemporary world. Space, with its discrete planetary bodies and other cosmic objects, functions both as an emblem of science fiction and operates in a more general sense as a space in which to map social, ideological and ontological boundaries between cultures and between humanity and the universe. This is especially evident in narratives of terraforming. They engage with climate change and environmental philosophy and bring these discourses into contact with a postcolonial geopolitics that is refl

Interactive fictions, particularly computer-simulation games, engage the user as a co-creator of a fictional world. Recognizing that the interactive freedom he or she experiences even in the most complex of interactive fictions is a mirage, the user can become keenly aware of the teleology inherent in all fictional works. At their best, however, these interactive fictions are less like novels and more like children’s games of make-believe in which objects and stories serve as props in an intensely creative world-building environment or as extensions of real life with gamelike qualities.

Abstract Modern Korean newspapers played a decisive role in transforming the Korean fiction genre in the early twentieth century―a transformation that was carried out in two distinctively different cultural and political environments. In the 1900s, reform-minded Korean intellectuals translated and authored fictional works in newspapers primarily as a way to instigate Koreans to participate in the nation-building process during the Patriotic Enlightenment movement (Aeguk kyemong undong) period. When Japan annexed Korea in 1910, the Daily News (Maeil sinbo) continually used fiction as a vehicle

This essay considers how possible worlds theory has been applied to science fiction, arguing that such an approach has tended to obscure issues of intertextuality within science fiction’s diegetic world-building. Rather than addressing sf’s alternative histories as “counterfactuals,” it is suggested that “counterfictionality” may also be significant. This is defined as the process through which new texts borrow from, combine, and rework the narrative worlds of existent fictions in order to pay homage to, but also comment on, originating classics in the genre’s cultural history.

In recent years, fiction specifically set in or about the afterlife has become a popular, critically acclaimed subgenre within contemporary fiction for young adults. One of the distinguishing aspects of young adult afterlife fiction is its detailed portrayal of an alien afterworld in which characters find themselves. Whilst reminiscent of the world-building of high or quest fantasy, afterworlds in young adult afterlife fiction have a distinctively different quality, and that is an emphasis on liminality.

Building upon the concept of Human Rights Literature (HRL) developed by Pramod K. Nayar, the article conducts a critical analysis of the novel.

A Narration is an act of carefully choosing specific or critical occasions through time and relating them in a particular arrangement.

Be that as it may, the thought in the story remains consistent. One can describe the same story in numerous diverse ways by the set of connections between all the characters.

AbstractThe role of the narrator in fiction has recently received renewed interest from scholars in philosophical aesthetics and narratology. Many of the contributions criticise how the term is used – both outside of narrative literature as well as within the field of fictional narrative literature. The central part of the attacks has been the ubiquity of fictional narrators, see e. g. Kania (2005), and pan-narrator theories have been dismissed, e. g. by Köppe and Stühring (2011). Yet, the fictional narrator has been a decisive tool within literary narratology for many years, in particular dur

With the appearance of Wandering Earth in the 2019 Spring Festival, Chinese science fiction films entered a new stage of development.This paper, using the 'Wandering Earth' series as a blueprint for research, first summarizes the development of Chinese science fiction films. Secondly, it focuses on analyzing why 'Wandering Earth' can be considered a genuinely Chinese hard science fiction film.Finally, through the analysis of the Wandering Earth series, we w

Abstract:

We say that the future city will be an automatic system for human like a science fiction films which means the 'Ubiquitous City or Intelligent City'. Actually, so many science fiction movies contain the wish or demand of human life. Generally, they show the convenience things for human life, the ideal image of future city, the solution technology of human being, and so on. In this world, every built thing is the product of human desire. Meanwhile, the scientific scenes in the movies are also the product of human desire. The reason of the above, this study tries to analogize image of city futur

Abstract:

In the last two decades of the Qing dynasty, installment publication became the dominant mode of presentation for Chinese fiction, as it had been for European and Japanese literature for more than half a century. Whether printed daily as one feature in a newspaper, weekly in literary supplements, or monthly in the fiction journals that took off in the early 1900s, Chinese vernacular fiction of this period appeared in parts over time, just as the works of Honoré de Balzac, Charles Dickens, Jippensha Ikku, Fyodor Dostoevsky, and even Henry James did (Link 1981; Lee and Nathan 1985; Chen 1988).

Abstract:

This paper details an experiment with how the process of writing, specifically writing fictional narratives, can take my queries into teacher subjectivity in unexpected directions, into what St. Pierre (2011) called the post-qualitative landscape. Building on the idea of writing as inquiry (Richardson, 1994), I produce fictional texts that expand the boundaries of traditional qualitative research and push the limits of what counts as knowledge. Specifically, as a former high school teacher, I question conventional constructs of teacher by writing her as me/not me, as fiction in search of a tru

In this article I examine the potential of the Femorabilia Collection of Women’s and Girls’ Twentieth Century Periodicals for the study of girlhood in Britain and the Commonwealth of Nations and I explain why the collection was originally created and describe its current purpose and policy to promote future research. I consider the importance of material and reading cultures as well as approaches to understanding the content of these varied publications and discuss the difficulties of working with mass culture, ephemeral texts, and the problem of obtaining examples, and I consider the collecti

Abstract:

Utopian theorists often speak about the merits of reading utopian fiction in order to reimagine and rebuild a better world, but dystopian fiction is often overlooked. This is, in my view, misguided because dystopian fiction, like utopian fiction, diagnoses issues with the present, inspires activism and resistance, and, in the twenty-first century, often presents ideas of how to effect positive change through collective activism. As speculative literary genres concerned with world-building, utopian and dystopian fiction have inherent sociological concerns. These texts can therefore be utilised

Abstract:

This article examines the educational benefits of a workshop on American multimodal fiction. Despite growing research in the fields of multimodality studies and teaching and learning processes, the capacity of print-based multimodal fiction for creative pedagogical objectives remained largely unaddressed. In this workshop, students were introduced to a body of print-based novels that combine writing with design and typographic elements, images and maps, and were able to experience them first-hand in class. The books were arranged in different parts of the room in working stations and students

Abstract:

The paper gives an overview of the prevalence of the analysis of science fiction literature and science fiction in other segments of popular culture in Serbian anthropology. This overview is preceded by a consideration of science fiction as a genre while keeping in mind the fluidity of the genre and the interweaving of subgenres as well as the transformations which science fiction is undergoing in certain media (books, films, TV shows and video games). In Serbian anthropology research on science fiction is more prevalent than the study of other phenomena, as the number of anthropologists whose
