		Fantasy is a genre of art, literature, film, television, and music that uses magic and other supernatural forms as a primary element of either plot, theme, setting, or all three.

	Guide to Fantasy, Part 0 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		When fantasy is also combined with rational explanation of how such new phenomena might come about, through invention, development or evolution, or through greater understanding of or modification to the laws of nature, it begins to become ‘Science Fiction’ — but we only really get to that in Part 4 onwards.
		In the prescientific ages fantastic occurrences are explained in terms of the supernatural, or magic, or as the result of dream or hallucination.
		Another factor favouring reliance on the authors' dates of birth is that it puts them among their contemporaries, and gives an indication of how far the culture of their time influenced them or how far ahead of their time they were.
