Verisimilitude refers to the appearance of being true or real. In literature and art, it describes how closely a work resembles reality or how believable it is within its own context. This concept encompasses aspects of character, setting, plot, and dialogue that contribute to the overall authenticity of the narrative or representation. In fiction, for example, verisimilitude can be achieved through detailed descriptions, realistic character motivations, and situations that feel plausible even if they are fantastical.
