Abstracts

EN
The present article summarizes most popular, characteristic or interesting British and American literary-critical discussions that have taken place over the last 40 years and concerned — more or less directly — issues connected with the taxonomy of non-mimetic (fantastic) literature. In particular, the article focuses on the proposals of Tzvetan Todorov, Rosemary Jackson, William L. Goshalk and Darko Suvin. All those works have been discussed from a typically genological and literary-theoretical positions, as assumed by the author. The main objective has been to verify their usefulness for the attempt to create a possibly synthetic and comprehensive, strictly genological taxonomy of the whole non-mimetic literature.
