How Ficta Follow Fiction: A Syncretistic Account of Fictional Entities
Alberto Voltolini (auth.)This book presents a novel theory of fictional entities which is syncretistic insofar as it integrates the work of previous authors. It puts forward a new metaphysical conception of the nature of these entities, according to which a fictional entity is a compound entity built up from both a make-believe theoretical element and a set theoretical element. The fictional entity is constructed by imagining the existence of an individual with certain properties and adding a set-theoretical element consisting of the set of properties corresponding to the properties of the imagined entity.
Moreover, the book advances a new combined semantic and ontological defence of the existence of fictional entities.
