The Borders of Fiction
SEVERA, Tomáš
The submitted master's thesis focuses on issues of fiction. First, it pursues the competing definitions of the term itself in order to define it as non-referential sign afterwards. In chapters two to four it presents and comments three traditional approaches to fiction formal, semantic and pragmatic. In chapter five, which is the largest one of the entire work, it addresses in the writings of theorists who largely try to move around the presumed border between fictional and factual narration, usually represented by historiographical works. And finally in chapter six it deals with insights brought to the traditional theories of fiction by two versions of relatively new discipline the simulation theory.
