Magic Realism In Hispanic Literature
[ send me this essay ]
23 pages in length. In a world that combines fantasy and reality to create an image much grander than life, magic realism is a space and time not many authors have successfully captured. Hispanic-American literature is most assuredly the leader of magic realism, which is defined as a mingling of characters and events in such a way that perfectly blends realistic and mythical elements to create a strangely familiar world. The fantastic qualities of magic realism are found most predominantly in Latin-American works that came to the forefront of the literary world between 1949 and 1970. The writer discusses the concept of magic realism as it relates to Hispanic-American literature, as well as documents the contributions of four gifted writers. Bibliography lists 12 sources.
