sells his soul to the devil to be a college president, hardly has a realistic
character in it. Rather they all are type characters like Ben Jonson’s humors
characters, who highlight or exaggerate foibles and foolish traits of humanity.
In other words, a lot of the fun of fiction is encountering realistic or quasi-realistic
characters, whom one may analyze, as one enjoys their adventures and even
afterward. But I do not try to push any specific dogma. But here I am
approaching a topic for another time.
