Fantasy

Fantasy has become a dominant mode of storytelling and it mirrors our experiences and anxieties better than any representation of the merely real. This book poses two central questions about fantastic storytelling: how can it be meaningful if it doesn't claim to represent things as they are, and what kind of change can it make in the world?

Fantezia a devenit un mod dominant de povestire si oglindeste experientele si anxietatile noastre mai bine decat orice reprezentare a pur si simplu real. Aceasta carte pune doua intrebari centrale despre povestirea fantastica: cum poate avea sens daca nu pretinde ca reprezinta lucrurile asa cum sunt si ce fel de schimbare poate face in lume?
