The concept of possible worlds, originally introduced in philosophical logic, proves to be a productive tool when borrowed by literary theory to explain the notion of fictional worlds. Ruth Ronen develops a comparative reading of the use of possible worlds in philosophy and in literary theory. She suggests new criteria for the definition of fictionality; and through specific studies of domains within fictional worlds-events, objects, time and point of view-she proposes a radical rethinking of fictionality in general and fictional narrativity in particular. | Possible Worlds In Literary Theory by Ruth Ronen, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
