Summary/Abstract: What do we call Fact? Can we agree on what produces it, on its state as an object? If yes, is a Fictional State of Fact possible and does it make sense talking about it? On what degree the meaning of literary text made through the reading is affected by our experience about the Fact? In our paper we answer these relevant questions accordingly to our outlook on the existence of a Dominant Meaning Matrix (DMM) in a given period, constructed by respective readers despite the literary nature of the texts, through a time interval with different diversity peaks. This Dominant Meaning Matrix (DMM) as “will and practice” of a given, definable community of reading in the shape of the Possible Reader, appeals as an Integral, relatively temporary in relation with a category of permanent facts as i.e. notion of ‘Death’ in literary texts. We explore the indication level of this relationship on different texts of Ismail Kadare, on corresponding structures and meanings, trying to formulate the contours of a possible process and its typology.
