Artifactual Theory of fiction
- fictional characters are non-concrete entities dependent (in different ways) on authors, texts and readers.
- they share important features with other dependent entities such as stories, works of music, theories, tools, churches, and universals.
- since fictional objects fall into the same category as literary works, one gains no parsimony by rejecting fictional objects and rephrasing apparent talk about them in terms of talk about stories
