The approach of interdisciplinary Literary and Media Interaction Research (LIR) is currently implemented in the context of the EU-project: "Narrative media interaction and psycho-trauma therapy". Here the basic question is: What do people actually do in mental, psycho-biographical, and developmental respect when they read novels or consume fictional narratives. In other words: How do people mentally interact with and about literary texts and fictional media products? What role does the media narrative itself have in this interaction, given its specific content and form?
