Anyone who tells stories describes the worlds where they take place. Narrated worlds are a constitutive part the narrative. Despite their major significance, such worlds are given short shrift in narratology. This volume acknowledges the broad range of processes whereby narratives stage diverse worlds: from premodern to postmodern, realism to fantasy, in literature and film.
