Abstract:

‘Real person fiction’ (RPF) is a subset of fanfiction that has gone largely unnoticed by academics. A handful of articles have argued for the justification of stories about real (living) people as a legitimate and morally sound art form, but only a very few studies have begun to consider RPF as a genre with its own aesthetics and conventions. This article argues that, to understand fannish RPF, we need to incorporate tools developed by scholars of digital fiction. Almost all fanfic is now produced for and on digital platforms, and moreover, the natural fit between RPF specifically and the stud

Abstract:

Non-fiction (from English «non-fiction», literally – “non–fiction”) is non-fiction literature that includes various prose genres based on real events and facts. Non-fiction includes nonfiction literature (biographies, memoirs, diaries, travel notes, essays), popular science literature, self-development literature and reference literature. A feature of non-fiction is the emotional impact on the reader through the description of real reality, and not through fictional characters and invented narratives, as it happens in fiction.

Abstract:

Fiction content analysis and retrieval are interesting specific topics for two major reasons: 1) the extensive use of fictional works; and, 2) the multimodality and interpretational nature of fiction. The primary challenge in the analysis of fictional content is that there is no single meaning to be analysed; the analysis is an ongoing process involving an interaction between the text produced by author, the reader and the society in which the interaction occurs. Furthermore, different audiences have specific needs to be taken into consideration. This article explores the topic of fiction know

Abstract:

Abstract Both the semantics of fictional discourse and the semantics of indexicality are canonical topics in the philosophy of language, on which there exists well-known significant literature. However, the same cannot be said for the terrain where they overlap. That is, the distinctive issues raised by fictive uses of indexicals and demonstratives have not been extensively studied per se. The aim of the present essay is to shed some light on this terrain, and to advance our understanding of some of these issues. As it happens, accounting for indexicals in fiction requires the use of innovativ

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.

Trauma involves a rupture in the temporal and symbolic orders at individual and collective levels.

The article opens with a discussion on the disorientation in the co-ordinative links between the world, the self, and representational tools in the event of a traumatic experience, which results in the crisis of referentiality.

The relation between games and simulations can be profitably investigated by combining ontological tools and recent neurological findings. Neurology shows that simulations are connected to fiction or to reality by a suspension of disbelief or alternatively a suspension of belief, and ontological categories of Mimesis (simulation of an event or an object) and Catharsis (simulation of the experience of an event or object) lead to a classification of ludic simulations, which allow to discover some of their hidden properties.

Abstract:

The paper aims to describe the results of the application of IT technologies for the analysis of fiction text in the context of the ubiquitous digitalisation of education. The aim of the paper is to develop an understanding of the functionality and value of Voyant Tools as a potential research tool. The authors present their own approach to the implementation of Voyant Tools in the process of analysing a fiction text remote in time from the modern reader. The toolkit has been applied to the analysis of an 18th-century fiction text. Its author is the French academic P.L. Le Roy, the book "Adven

Abstract:

The article considers the principle of ranges (Spielraum) of J. von Kries and its interpretation by M. Weber to analyze the eventual plots in fiction. It draws upon the works of Russian authors, referred to the genre of alternative history. In the first step, the author, analyzing the approaches to the study of probabilistic plots, notes that, thanks to the works of researchers, probabilistic plots began to be considered on the basis of their own logic, and alternativity was justified as a manifestation of objective relations of reality.

As a new proposal, it invites reflection and debate.

Abstract:

The undergraduate computer science curriculum is generally focused on skills and tools; most students are not exposed to much research in the field, and do not learn how to navigate the research literature. We describe how science fiction reviews were used as a gateway to research reviews. Students learn a little about current or recent research on a topic that stirs their imagination, and learn how to search for, read critically, and compare technical papers on a topic related their chosen science fiction book, movie, or TV show.

AbstractThis paper addresses the question of how to account for the distinction between narrator-creating and narrator-neutral narration from a linguistic perspective. I first take issue with the approach by Eckardt (2015), according to which narrator-neutral narration is due to a lack of knowledge about the narrating situation; specifically, I raise an existence problem, an anthropomorphism problem, and a tense problem. Second, combining ideas of the Institutional Theory of Fiction as described by Walton (1990) and Köppe/Stühring (2011) and formal tools of Attitude Description Theory as devel

Abstract:

By concentrating on the work of Angelo Poliziano (1454–1494), this article explores the questions about whether and to what extent fictional accounts of reality may contribute to the crafting of rational arguments. I will present Poliziano’s contribution to this debate as deeply embedded in a culture of verbal and visual mediation, as was characteristic of Renaissance philosophy. At a time and in a place (fifteenth-century Florence) where philosophy was open to forms of experimentation involving words and images, Poliziano was keen to defend the legacy of poetry, rhetoric and history within th

The field of ontology has received attention lately due to the increasing needs in conceptualizing the domain knowledge for resolving various jobs' demand. Numerous new techniques, tools and applications have then been developed for their suitability in managing knowledge. However, most works carried out focused on non-fiction domain and categorizing the concepts into component or cluster. Hence, the originality of the content flow is not preserved. This paper presents an automated ontology construction in fiction domain. The significance of the study lies in (1) designing a simple and easy al

This article focuses on an object-oriented approach to creative writing and relates object characters in short fiction to aspects of Martin Heidegger’s tool analysis and Graham Harman’s OOO: Object-Oriented Ontology. By briefly referring to certain contemporary short fiction examples, and through a longer exegetical approach to some of my own object-centred work, this article encourages short fiction writers and creative writing tutors to start seeing objects as potential creative stimuli for more object-centred texts, as tools which rebel against their users and against other objects, and as
