This volume brings together scholars of philology, comparative literature, folklore studies, history, journalism and political science wishing to discuss dimensions of the relationship between fiction and non-fiction.

REAL STORIES, IMAGINED REALITIES presents an inventory of inter disciplinary approaches and case studies on ways to bring the two key terms, fiction and non-fiction, together-or to keep them apart. The very terms, or pairs of terms, arranging the discursive orchestra that the articles put together are fiction-non-fiction, fictive-factual, ethics-aesthetics, individual-collective, history-literature,experience-memory, and author-reader.
