[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Um, I think you need to google fiction. As defined above, historical fiction tells a story set in a certain period using some historical figures and/or events and embellishes by making up dramatic storylines that aren't based on historical fact or evidence. That's Reign. And your examples underscore precisely why it's historical FICTION.[/quote] My examples are quotes from the cast and reviewers saying it's [b]not[/b] [b]historical[/b] fiction. I'm not quibbling whether or not it's fiction. Of course it is, but it's not considered historical fiction, e.g.,: "Historical" fiction should present believable and plausible representations of the past...Egregious anachronisms are unacceptable violations of genre expectations for Historical Fiction...Historical fiction should be good fiction and good history... http://web.cocc.edu/cagatucci/classes/eng339/seminar1.htm[/quote]
