Description

In Fiction: A Philosophical Analysis, Catharine Abell provides a unified solution to various philosophical problems raised by works of fiction. By taking a distinctively institutional approach, this book addresses the epistemology of fiction, an area that has not yet received the philosophical scrutiny it deserves. Abell explores the complex relationship between works of fiction and their audiences. While much discussion exists regarding what determines the contents of fiction, this text focuses on how audiences identify those contents and the norms that govern correct understanding and interpretation. This work provides answers to both metaphysical and epistemological questions, making it a significant resource for those studying language, grammar, and the philosophy of fiction.
