    The object of this paper is to further understand how reading literature increases capacity for empathy, and how narratives positively influence human beings. This will be done via a close reading of China Miéville's "Perdido Street Station" with particular focus on the character Yagharek whose tragic situation and journey provides a starting point for a discussion about empathy. The question is whether speculative fiction can be more capable of triggering empathy than other genres. In his analysis Dennis Friedrichsen demonstrates the ways in which fantasy literature creates an effective distance to the real world in order to negotiate complicated issues of morality, ethics and empathy.

  2. J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Silmarillion" : a seminal mythological work and inspirational source for the author's conception of Middle-earth

    J.R.R. Tolkien's "enigmatic and unfinished" book "The Silmarillion" - posthumously published by Christopher Tolkien in 1977 - is often referred to as being a mythic work, or a collection of mythopoeic tales, but what exactly does that description entail? Logically, Tolkien's writings, by virtue of being labeled 'mythic' alongside of mythologies such as "The Iliad", "Metamorphoses", and "The Odyssey", must possess qualities which warrant the description. While Tolkien's mythology is in a different category since his mythology is specifically designed for Middle-earth, there are still important overlaps through which inspiration and influences may be traced.
