    R.R. Tolkien tend to go in the same path with the creation of their own worlds, as Martin created a world of Westeros in A Game of Thrones. The way George R.R. Martin was able to respond to other writers in the high fantasy was by getting influenced by the other author methods they used in their writing. One of the most shared things that both authors have in their high fantasy novels was the formation of the imaginative world, which he demonstrates from Martin’s Skills. A Game of Thrones has a…

    ideas on how fantasy stories should function in order to create a successful “world” for a reader to dive into. In an essay “On Fairy Stories,” written by Tolkien, he describes to us what he believes makes a “fairy story,” a “fairy story.” One of these rules he describes is Escape and the ways a story can connect, not only within itself but, with the reader in order to create a total immersion between the reader and book.

    childhood dreams, to wizards, to evil spirits, the fantasy genre has taken audiences into worlds they never could have imagined. Fantasy genre films use creativity, magic, and unrealistic circumstances to take one’s mind beyond its limits. “Fantasy is a fluid genre that allows crossover with horror, science fiction, comedy, holiday films, and more” (Goodyknootz & Jacobs, 2014).

Lawhead's work that deals with mixing mythology and historical events, “Bright Empires” does neither. Instead, they focus on humans going to other dimensions and what it would be like to visit worlds, not just countries, that were not their own. With the release of the fifth book in the series in 2014, called “The Fatal Tree”, the…

When one thinks of a fantasy, one may conjure up things like unicorns flying in the wind, elves dancing around a Christmas tree, or like the poem expresses, touching dragonflies and stars. All incidences are unreal, imaginative. Ernest Bormann, however, had another perspective on fantasy altogether. Fantasy is dimensionally acquired through dramatization and rhetorical vision. “Rhetorical vison is considered to be construction of a…

    Pontalis’s ‘structural understanding of fantasies as myths of origin’ and Freud’s ‘original fantasy’, Williams shows how all three genres explore enigmas of sexual desire, sexual difference and self. Pornography addresses sexual desire and its unknown origin, by creating a fantasy of the perfect moment where a seducer and the seduced may meet and share moments of pleasure ‘on time’.
