translate English to German: In the 19th and early 20th centuries , much fantasy was published in the same magazines as science fiction (and often written by the same authors). After the great popularity, in the mid-20th century, of J. R. R. Tolkien's The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings , as well as of C. S. Lewis 's Chronicles of Narnia and Ursula K. Le Guin 's Earthsea series , fantasy writing saw renewed popularity, often influenced by these seminal works and, like them, borrowing from myth, epic, and medieval romance.
Die Fantasy enthält oft Gestalten aus Mythen oder Sagen (etwa Zwerge , Trolle, Zauberer , Hexen , Drachen ) oder verwendet mythische Orte (etwa Troja , Atlantis , Camelot).
