Zipes J (2008).Why fantasy matters too much. Comparative Literature and Culture 10(4)
Zipes wrote an article on why fantasy matters too much. According to the author Wholesale Arizona Cardinals Jerseys , he proposes that fantasy in the contemporary culture does funct elebrity and money-making machine. Based on the argument provided by the author, fantasy does mobilize and instrumentalize the fantastic so as to form and celebrate spectacles as the illusions of social relations based on power. In the article, Zipes uses the term fantasy in a broad sense and with different meanings. Through fantasy, people can explain, group, comment Wholesale Atlanta Falcons Jerseys , and alter the reality. The author argues that too much fantasy can be problematic. From his view, he believes that our current fixation with the fantastic is causing us to forget that our world is fantastic in and of itself. Zipes state that 鈥渋t is through fantasy that we have always sought to make sense of the world, not through reason.鈥?Zipes claim that reason tends to matter; however, fantasy matters more.
鈥淥ur fantasy and the fantasies that we conceive have become desperate because they are outstripped by real existing conditions that instrumentalize them at every waking second of our day, and even when we slumber. It is a commonplace today that fiction, especially science fiction and what we label fantasy in the world of art Wholesale Washington Redskin Jerseys , cannot keep pace with the devastating and disturbing fantastic of real occurrences, or what I call the incredible credibility of the real. When the normal is so fantastically abnormal, what role can fantastic works of art play in our lives?鈥?br > From the statement, the author tries to explain that we are full of make-believe such that our brains do not have any room for facts. According to the author, fantasy may have mattered a lot such that our reliance on fantasy can betray us while at the same time nourish us and provide us with the hope that the world can be a better place. Today, we tend to have imagined gods Wholesale Tennessee Titans Jerseys , miraculous feats of the divide, the kingdom of single God, and semi-divine characters and also commandments established so as to lead us to the good life. Zipes claim that it is through this fictive projection of our imaginations that we may seek to grasp, explain, and comment on the reality. According to Zipes, it is because of the fantasy that stables such as the Grimms fairy and the Bible are conical texts Wholesale Tampa Bay Buccaneers Jerseys , unlike the reality that they supposedly open the mysteries of life and also reveal ways of maintaining ourselves and our integrity in the conflict-ridden world. Zipes suggests that we do not fantasy so as to compensate for our dull lives; however, he says that we need it for the spiritual regeneration and so as to contemplate alternatives to the harsh realities. We need fantastic for resistance; however, if it provides resistance to real social conditions in the form of spiritual regeneration and critical reflection, we need to know what it is and how it does the operation in the public sphere and our brains.
The author argues that through fantasy, we can make sense of our world and he also explains that we need fantasy so as to be able to contemplate the alternatives to our realities because fantasy does require us to appreciate the extraordinary in the ordinary and also reassess our values. From his argument, he implies that fantasy provides us with a glimpse at how we want to live our lives and also allows us to seek our potential. In this article Wholesale Seattle Seahawks Jerseys , Zipes suggest that we sometimes rely heavily on fantasy for it is the only way that we are able of finding sanity in our lives. Zipes admit that any attempt of defining fantasy as a category or genre is considered as undermining the nature of fantasy. Finding a place to call your own or creating such a place that never existed before is work of fantasy itself. In his writing, Zipes claim that all genuine work of art does involve fantasy, which includes the labor of brain and imagination, and how to incorporate the fantastic components to art that negates what is expected of art in content and form. The work of art is significant because they reveal the extent of imagination and fantasy and become instrumentalized in how the fantastic is used in imposing views.
In the article, Zipes touches about children and youth literature. The author state that despite the reader being a child or adult, the fantastic in picture books tend to fail when it is just complimentary Wholesale San Francisco 49ers Jerseys , descriptive, titillating, or decorative. However, it succeeds when it tend to provoke the reader to stand back and take a second look, reflect, and doubt. Zipes demonstrates how Fantasy is a common theme in postmodern US-America. Numerous genres including fantastic tend to reflect the disturbing trend towards the disintegration of community and family and the cultural wars that surround it. Zipes claims that today Wholesale Pittsburgh Steelers Jerseys , heroes in the comic books and graphic novels include mutants such as X-Men who are trying to restrain politicians, the police, and military from establishing neo-fascist regimes or destroying the world. In the article, the author demonstrates how fantastic is frequently applied in the different forms of popular culture so as to project the utopian possibilities for developing the human community where differences among people are solved through mutual support. Fantastic also serve in offering a persistent critique of a norm which appears to be perverse and out of place that the only hope for the spectators is laughter.
As Zipes conclude his article, he states that if there is something like fantasy and if it matters, we should investigate it and know what it means. We tend to have fantasies Wholesale Philadelphia Eagles Jerseys , and to it, we seek to encounter the space in our lives through generating visions of how we want to live and realize our potential. Zipes asserts that our fantasy needs to be channeled through the spectacular so as to control our critical thinking and our creative work. From Zipes view, we arA shar.
