Contents:

I. The Nature of the Inquiry

(Introducing psychoanalytical grounding for why fiction matters: didactic and mimetic intentions of the author.)

"By and large psychoanalytic interest in literature has run backward, from the work of art to its creator, whereas ours will flow forward, from the work of art to the reader."

(Fiction enables us to satisfy needs frustrated by reality.)
