[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Encyclopedia_of_Fantasy <i>The Encyclopedia of Fantasy</i>], by John Clute and John Grant, offers a definition of '''fantasy''' as stories about the impossible, that which cannot ~~possibly~~ exist in reality as we know it. When set in the world we know, the tales are about beings, places, and events that cannot be. When placed in a realm not of this earth, the settings themselves are impossible, not functioning according to our world's physical laws. [[Science fiction]], by contrast, describes that which ''might be possible'', though not at the present time or with known technology.
