Abstract:

Abstract Each of the functions of fantasy described by J. R. R. Tolkien in his essay “On Fairy-Stories” can be reframed through affordance theory into a kind of re-visioning. Such re-visioning is comparable to the formalist notion of defamiliarization or the science fiction technique that Darko Suvin called “cognitive estrangement.” Whereas science fiction projects alternative futures, fantasy's affordances allow writers to generate alternative worldviews grounded in real or invented mythic pasts. The initial move away from claiming to imitate reality allows fantasy writers to project inner ex

Abstract:

In his work, the modern American playwright Don Nigro frequently refers to the personalities of world spiritual culture – philosophers, artists, musicians and writers. Russian cultural personalities occupy a significant place among them, great Russian writers in particular, to some of these personalities individual plays are dedicated, while others appear in them as minor characters. Such is the play “Dostoyevsky” (2015), in which the writer’s work is inextricably linked with his biography. In this essay, we set out to analyze this synthesis of the factional and the fictional.

Abstract:

In the generation of writers of the 60’s, the prose of A.E. Baconsky has an unmistakable stamp. Her prose is seen strangely, sealed by intellectualism and nightmare, which is why she was associated with the fantastic genre. Indeed, the prose writer’s way of mixing the fabulous, the vague and the equivocal has special pictorial effects. This communication will focus on the technical elements and means of expression used by the prose writer in the segment of exploring the aesthetic palette from parabolic to fantastic. It will be seen that the prose writer uses specific images and vis

Abstract:

Doris Lessing (1919 – 2013) was one of the greatest British writers and the oldest winner to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. Since 1969, she started to use fantasy in her works as a mode of fictional expression. Fantasy is a genre in literature that contains supernatural phenomena in fictional worlds. This paper’s central concern is also the use of fantasy in her works. For her, fantasy is a tool used to separate present day reality. Fantasy allows her to cope with themes that could not have been used in realistic works. This paper explores the question of fantasy in Lessing’s selected nove

Abstract:

The artistic image in the novel is not only the carrier of the writer’s narrative activities, but also the most vivid literary element in the story text. In American fantasy in the 20th century, writers not only created a large number of human characters with distinctive personalities, but also created many animal images full of spirituality and vitality. While absorbing nutrients from myths, legends and folk tales, they also endowed the various animals in the novel with unique psychological and emotional characteristics of humans, thereby creating a new depiction of anthropomorphic animals an

Abstract:

In the contemporary postmodern era, the boundaries that once rigidly separated well-established genres have become more fluid, resulting in what scholars Raffaella Baccolini and Tom Moylan call ‘genre-blurring’. This phenomenon of incorporating elements from diverse genres represents a challenge to dominant ideologies and expands the possibilities within fictional texts. The dystopian fiction written by feminist writers towards the end of the twentieth century and beyond significantly exemplifies this form of hybrid textuality. In doing so, these writers seek to renovate the dystopian genre by

Abstract:

Since the middle of the 20th century a specific direction, which has gained the status of a serious philosophical (intellectual) fiction prose, has been developing in science fiction literature. Its most illustrative example is the work of Polish science fiction writer Stanislaw Lem (1921–2006). One of the tasks that fantasy writers try to solve by literary means is the representation of non-anthropomorphic consciousness. This task is internally contradictory: it requires one to speak of the nonhuman, which implies going beyond ones own boundaries, alienation from ones own essence. At the same

This paper is a close reading of Raja Alem’s 2005 novel, Fatma: A Novel of Arabia. I argue that Alem depicts the erotic in ways similar to Audre Lorde’s definition – as a doorway to self-fulfillment and in honor of the “fullness” of the erotic’s depth of feelings. The Saudi Arabian writer employs the fantastic, which has been used by writers to express feminist politics, to give textual embodiment to the relationship between the erotic, self-actualization, and women’s empowerment, central to which is self-knowledge and self-discovery. Alem suggests that a deeper knowledge of the self can open

Abstract:

Genre fiction, also recognized as popular fiction is an umbrella term as it comprises various categories, varieties, and sub-types. On occasion, innovative writers have practiced in mingling these methods and generating an entirely dissimilar variety of categories. In general, genre fiction inclines to place plentiful significance on entertainment and, as a consequence, it leans towards to be more widespread with mass audiences. But currently, writers are lettering beyond mere meager amusement and they are commenting on various socio-cultural issues, resulting in their writing more realistic.

Abstract:

In recent years, more and more English-language literature is being published by Asian diaspora writers, mostly in the genres of fantasy and science-fiction. With the focal audience being young adults, such publications are seen by many as a form of escapism. While most of these works stem from the Sinophone diaspora communities, there remains much debate regarding how their stories and the authors themselves should be labeled. In the face of the pervasive nature of Western Orientalism, Chinese writers have struggled with the balance of inclusion and exclusion regarding both Chinese culture in

Abstract This special forum asks: How is postsecularism shaped by the politics and philosophies of religion, secularism, and postcolonialism? How are the enabling possibilities of postsecularism, combining religion and secularism, explored by writers from the Global South—Africa, Asia, Latin America? Addressing these and other questions, the scholars in this forum examine postcolonial postsecularism across literature, history, criticism, and theory. They study Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Daoism, Hinduism, Islam, and Sikhism. They analyze literary genres and devices that include novel

The article is of a review and reminiscent nature. It presents the profile and scientific activity of one of the most outstanding Polish researchers of fantasy literature — Professor Antoni Smuszkiewicz. The Professor’s works — books, articles, monographs — defined Polish fantasy not only in strictly literary studies, but also in the social dimension. Antoni Smuszkiewicz collaborated with the Polish fandom for many years and was recognized in the community of fantasy writers and lovers of this genre as the greatest authority in Poland.

Abstract:

One of my favourite moments at LOON Cafe was the spectacle of five Toronto theatre critics conjuring up instant reviews before a live audience of actors, writers, and theatre directors. It wasn’t just the fantasy of every performer there to witness a moment of mutual vulnerability between critic and artist. It was yet another indication of a genuine movement within Toronto’s theatre community to “deregulate” the boundaries of theatre art.

Abstract:

A figurative model is a living model, one way or another created in the imagination of a writer, which stimulates his creative fantasy when describing a specific character in its various manifestations, and also helps to find the necessary linguistic means, materials and images for creative work when creating this character. The image of a long-suffering woman occupies an important place in literature, especially in the works of Arab writers. Jubran Khalil Jubran and Huseyn Javad are two outstanding authors whose works are full of deep social and philosophical reflections on the fate of women.

Abstract:

In the middle of the 19th century, Romanian writers became involved in the creation of an original literature and in the configuration of geniuses, out of the desire to synchronize with other literatures. Thus, there is a tendency to impose the novel, "the literature most liked by readers and most tried by writers", reaching that in the middle of the century to manifest a continuous increase in the number and variety of the range. As a result of this development, the 19th century novel was well represented by: psychological novel, historical novel, social novel, political novel, fantasy novel,
