	Wikinfo \| Fantasy
		In literature Fantasy is a form of fiction, encompassing novels, short stories, role-playing games, and movies, that is most typically set in a world quite different from the Earth, often replete with mythical creatures and magical powers.
		As a genre, fantasy is both associated and contrasted with science fiction and horror fiction.
		In the 19th and early 20th centuries, much fantasy was published in the same magazines as science fiction (and written by the same authors, largely).

		An author is the person who creates a written work, such as a book, story, article or the like, whether short or long, fiction or nonfiction, poetry or prose, technical or literature.
		The death of the author is in self-conscious opposition to the New Criticism, a literary critical movement popular in England and America in the first half of the 20th century.
