I have my own fictional universe that I am looking for the word that refers to the set of rules/laws which maintains the realism within the universe. I am looking for this word that means the universe which maintains the realism within itself

I am looking for the word that refers to the set of rules/laws within a fictional universe which maintains the realism within the universe.

Within the Lord of the Rings it is established that magic, elves, trolls etc are all realistic within this fantasy universe as it is established early on in the story. However, if Frodo suddenly pull out a phone and let Gandalf know he was on his way to Mt. Doom it would be unrealistic within the universe.

I’ve seen it for the

  • first
  • time on
  • an
  • internet

forum. I can’t remember where or when I started looking for it but now it’s still there. All the time it isn’t. All synonyms of the word realism are not what the word is. I believe it to be specific to rules/laws within fictional fiction created that maintain the status quo of realism.

I apologise for retweeting this, but cannot think of another way to explain it and simply hope someone reading this knows the word.

An important concept and should I apologize. What does your universe come with? I find that answer the best ONE. How do modern dictionaries use this term?

Is there a better term that follows you for Verisimilitude (Propeller)?

Versimilitude is the “lifelikeness” or

believability of a work of fiction.Language philosopher Steve Neale distinguishes between two types: cultural verismilitude, meaning plausability…outside of the work; and generic verismilitude, meaning plausibility…within the bounds of its own genre. Other

related terms are mimesis and diegesis.

Verismilitude has its roots in both the

Platonic and Aristotelian dramatic theory of mimesis, which is the imitation or representation of nature. Do We Need a Grounding in Reality?

The term “diegesis” is a two-dimensional term found only in the

Greek language: Diegesis (Greek “narration”) and Mimesis (Greek “imitation”) have been contrasted since Plato’s and Aristotle’s times. As we are approaching the end of the millenial process, what is Mimesis represented by means of action that is enacted? Diegesis is the knowledge of a narrator in a story. Can a narrator speak as a particular character or perhaps the invisible narrator, or even the all-knowing narrator speaking from an external perspective?
