- Abstract
The aim of this essay is to enhance the potential of literary and theatrical 'fiction' according to three different registers! logical, gnoseological, modal. From the logical point of view, the poetic-dramaturgical fiction challenges the Aristotelian principle of non-contradiction! in the symbolic act in which x simulates being y, x doesn't cease to be himself/herself to become other. Fiction does not imply abandoning an identity to conquer a new and different one! it is the coexistence of sameness and difference, of identity and its inexhaustible alteration. It is a contradictory coexistence in relation to classical logic, but this contradiction is the irrevocable nature of the symbolic-imaginative activity of the human being. According to the gnoseological perspective, a careful analysis leads to a re-thinking of the static opposition between true and false, so that in the 'simulation' x and y are either both true or both false; a gnoseology based on an inclusive disjunction replaces the one based on an exclusive logic. Finally, from the modal point of view, the poetic-literary fiction breaks the mechanism that submits the possible to the real, relegating it to non-existence and non-actuality. The great novel, when it is really a great novel, actualizes the possible and at the same time makes the real possible. Neither the static nature of reality, nor the evanescence of possibility, but the vertigo of virtuality is the proper dimension of narrative fiction, that is, no longer the dimension of the individual but of its pathic and unintentional background! the singularity.
