The course will study the kind of reading stance called forth by texts that challenge conventions of normality. We will look into the different relationships between the fantastic and the verisimilar, which is determined by what society considers normal. The works that will be read deal with the fantastic in a variety of ways, ranging from the apparently natural presentation of events to an awareness of the clash between the state of affairs they deal with and the rules regulating phenomena in the world.
