  • How to distinguish between different sub-genres of utopia with thought experiments [Elektronski vir]
    Todorović, Tadej
    In this article, I will endeavour to show how we can use the recent literature on the relationship between thought experiments and fiction to differentiate between sub-genres of utopia. First I ... establish the relationship between thought experiments and fiction upon which I will build my argument. Next I introduce the classification of utopia into its sub-genres as envisaged by Sargent. In what follows, I aspire to show that we can substantiate the same classification if we use different kinds of thought experiments to categorize utopian works. By introducing Brown's taxonomy of thought experiments, dividing thought experiments into destructive and constructive, I suggest that (i) we can categorize sub-genres of utopia via thought experiments and substantiate Sargent's definitions, and (ii) that the proposed relationship between thought experiments and fiction may serve a practical purpose when it comes to classifying literary genres.
