The study deals with the reference of fictional narrative and the theoretical conceptualization of the reader’s activity. It is a response to a study by the philosopher Peter Koťátko, in which he argues that a narrative fictional text directs our thinking and imagination at a real world. Thereby Peter Koťátko disputes the theory of ontologically independent fictional worlds. The result of the comparison of both approaches is the author’s belief, that there is a tension between Peter Koťátko’s attempt to simplify the fictional reference and the substantial feature of the fictional narrative reader’s activity. The reader has to act in two ways: on one hand he believes, that what he reads really happens, on the other hand he understands that what he reads is a fiction. Constant relating text and reality to each other using the operator “as if“ (Peter Koťátko) rather disturbs the game-like character of the activity (especially when reading non-mimetic texts). On the contrary the theory of fictional worlds (Marie-Laure Ryan, Lubomír Doležel) takes into account two levels of the reader’s activity.

I want to defend in this essay that the main thesis is that a fictional name refers to an individual concept, understood as a mental file that stores information, in the form of different descriptive concepts, about a purported individual. Given there is no material particular a fictional name could be referring to, it will be construed as referring to the concept of a particular, with which many descriptive concepts are associated, in the context of the set of thoughts constitutive of a fictional narrative. A fictional narrative will be thus characterised as a conceptual world, namely, a set of sentence-types semantically correlated with a set of thought-types.
