Fiction Concept by Hans Vaihinger

Summary/Abstract: This text primarily deals with Hans Vaihinger‘s fiction theory. Emphasizing the central role of scientific fiction in that theory, it attempts to give a critical account of Vaihinger‘s philosophical theory of ‚As if‘. On the one hand, this analysis of the philosophy of ‚As if‘ includes conceptual delimitation between the notion of fiction and concepts of fantasy, hypothesis, and regulatory ideas. On the other hand, it points out to some problems related to Vaihinger‘s constructivist-pragmatic approach to the problem of fiction, such as a tendency towards an unreasonable extension of the notion of fiction, and a tendency towards the integration of other forms of fictionality into scientific fiction.
