MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611112592 A) filed by Dr. Tripti Tyagi on September 19, 2026, for Stheory: A Literary Framework For Developing Theories Through Short Stories.
Inventor includes Dr. Tripti Tyagi.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a literary framework termed “Stheory”, representing a short story through which an original theory, idea, supposition, analysis, perception, phenomenon, or newly coined terminology is introduced alongside a literary narrative. The term “Stheory” is formed from the letter “S” derived from “short story” and the word “theory.” The framework recognizes a short story as a medium capable of originating and communicating conceptual and philosophical thought in addition to presenting a plot. An author may identify an observation concerning society, culture, ethics, relationships, human behaviour, philosophy, or other human circumstances and express the observation through a newly formulated concept or terminology incorporated within the narrative. The story thereby provides literary context for understanding the introduced concept while encouraging readers to ponder, criticize, discuss, accept, reject, or reinterpret the proposition. The framework provides a distinct literary identity for short stories combining narrative expression with original conceptual discourse.
