Please post you notes from the library lesson here. If you weren't there for this lesson you'll need to revise the notes.
Everyone should print them off and glue them in your w/bs.

Fantasy. Can be defined as stories that involve beings and events that could not exist in real life. They may begin realistically but soon turn into stories that could never really happen. The adventures of Alice in Wonderland is an example of Fantasy and this was wrote in 1865.
Fairytale. This term is ofter used interchangeable and they usually concern of fairies - elfs - pixies and other imaginar beings in which have magical powers.
- A work of written, oral or artistic expression that uses symbolic fictional figures and actions to convey truths or generalisations about human conduct or experience
- Allegory both conceals and reveals
- Like metaphor, an allegory expresses spiritual, psychological or abstract intellectual concepts in terms of material and concrete objects.
Within different religions myths tend to differ. The idea and function of a myth is to provide justifications for a ritual. At the beginning of the 20th century many scholars thought of myths as their earliest forms off accounts of social customs and values.
Autobiography: Like biographies, manifests a wide variety of forms, beginning with the intimate writings made during a life which was (apparently not) intended for plublication.

Realism... in fiction!
Primarily a revolt against sentimentality and melodrama of romantic idealism
Characters are less extraordinary
Settings are more familiar
Styles are plainer
Plots have fewer twists
More believable
Often dreary matters
Two factors:
1. Science development
2. Increasing understanding of social and political problems
First important in 1700’s – 1800’s
( Example - Used by F. Scott Fitzgerald)
