# Can Artificial Intelligence Write Like [PERSON]? An Evaluation Protocol for Spanish Microfiction
## 3 Materials and Methods  
### Evaluation Protocol  
It is important to note that the definition of literarity is ideological and sociohistorical; hence, it is not fixed in time but rather embedded within a cultural context [47]. In educational settings, the communicative approach to language, drawn from linguistic pragmatics is applied [48], with literature characterized as a form of communication distinguished by four elementary features. The first feature is verisimilitude; a literary text is grounded in everyday reality, but represents that reality instead of replicating it. Consequently, it does not rely on external references but rather creates them, demanding that readers engage in a cooperative pact in which they accept the proposed universe as plausible. The second distinguishing aspect of literature is its codification; it is a message in which every component is chosen to convey meaning, with each perceived as intentional and linked to the total meaning of the work. Thus, a literary text cannot be summarized, translated, or paraphrased without significant loss of its essence [49]. Derived from these, the third feature is the deliberate breaking of rules and conventions of everyday language, and even strict grammar, in favor of aesthetic effect or meaning. This creates a tension between literature and language, emphasizing how something is said over what is said. Lastly, the deferred character of literarity [50] refers to the fact that the sender and receiver(s) of a work rarely share context; although this influences reception, it is not decisive for understanding the text. Autonomy largely depends on the integrity and cohesion of the diegetic world. Yet, one question remains: are these elements enough to consider a text to be literary? Perhaps functionally; however, literary communication holds a significant ideological component that is dependent on sociohistorical context. In cultural studies, a distinction between 'literary' and 'consumer' fiction is made based on one variable, namely, prestige [51]. Traditionally, canonical literature was determined by academia or critics; since the 19 th century, the publishing industry has also played a pivotal role in validation [52]. Each participant uses different parameters and perspectives; however, in mediating between author, reader, and time [53], the editor's role is arguably the most operational and inclusive. Editors assess the clarity of content. technical value based on genre, and relevance, which can be thematic, formal, or commercial [14]. Hence, when applied to the evaluation of microfiction, these three parameters of clarity, technical value, and relevance gauge its potential for publication and integration into the contemporary literary landscape. Initial assessment by a publisher for the publication of an unsolicited manuscript typically involves an evaluation process known as opinion. This usually entails a report prepared by a specialized reader focusing on the content's technical value, commercial potential, and possible marketing strategies. To systematically address these aspects, we propose an evaluation instrument for microfiction consisting of questions that can be answered by both specialized and non-specialized readers. The evaluation framework outlined in Table 2 presents the GrAlmes evaluation protocol, which includes 15 items specifically tailored to assess Spanish microfiction, with broader applicability to narrative productions across genres and languages (for which further research is needed). The protocol is organized into three distinct dimensions, each addressing specific criteria for systematic analysis of the texts assigned to evaluators. The first dimension, labeled \"story overview and text complexity,\" evaluates literary quality through an assessment of thematic coherence, textual clarity, interpretive depth, and aesthetic merit, incorporating both quantitative metrics (e.g., scoring scales) and qualitative judgments (e.g., textual commentary) to appraise literary value.
