History of fantasy
Elements of the supernatural and the fantastic were an element of literature from its beginning. The modern genre is distinguished from tales and folklore, that contain fantastic elements, by firstly the acknowledged fictitious nature of the work, and secondly the naming an author. Works in which the marvels were not necessarily believed, or only half-believed, such as the European romances of chivalry and the tales of the "Arabian Nights", slowly evolved into works with such traits. Authors like George MacDonald (1824 –1905) created the first explicitly fantastic works. Later, in the twentieth century, the publication of "The Lord of the Rings" by J. R. R. Tolkien enormously influenced fantasy writing, establishing the form of epic fantasy.
Themes in A Song of Ice and Fire
"A Song of Ice and Fire" is an ongoing series of epic fantasy novels by American novelist and screenwriter George R. R. Martin. The first installment of the series, "A Game of Thrones", which was originally planned as a trilogy, was published in 1996. The series now consists of five published volumes, and two more volumes are planned. The series is told in the third-person through the eyes of a number of point of view characters. A television series adaptation, "Game of Thrones", premiered on HBO in 2011. "A Song of Ice and Fire" takes place in a fictional world, primarily on a continent called Westeros, and additionally on a large landmass to the east, known as Essos.

Fantasy literature
Fantasy literature is set in an imaginary universe, often but not always without any locations, events, or people from the real world. Magic, the supernatural and magical creatures are common in many of these imaginary worlds. Fantasy is a subgenre of speculative fiction and is distinguished from the genres of science fiction and horror by the absence of scientific or macabre themes, respectively, though these genres overlap. Historically, most works of fantasy were written, however, since the 1960s, a growing segment of the fantasy genre has taken the form of films, television programs, graphic novels, video games, music and art.
