Not necessarily. It is a matter of degree.False. It is still fiction, no matter how it was formed. Whether it was a million ignorant, terrified, illiterate, superstitious peasants adding fictitious elements out of whimsy or magical beliefs, or JK Rowling shitting out another shitty book before breakfast, fiction is fiction.Again... the anthropological aspect of ancient accounts says otherwise.
All fiction alludes to fact.
Fiction generates truth independently of fact; it is a repository of resonances. ... truths we can only approach through juxtaposition and allusion.
