Explores how García Márquez incorporates violent imagery and themes in his work and how this depiction of violence links his narrative to conflict in contemporary Colombia. Prologue by Darío Jaramillo, p.xi-xxii.
This book gathers articles, essays and notes about Colombian literature written between 1967 and 1997. Gabriel García Márquez takes the lead in what the author calls "the mid-century generation."
The interpretative proposal of this work that can very well be seen as a case of cultural study, opens the door to a necessary dialogue about the people who animated the previous readings of the literary work of the Colombian author and the pertinence that these might still have. It also suggests that a footpath of reading is left to go over to better understand the unfolded world of García Márquez's narrations and their hybridization so appropriate for the American world.

Notes:
Menton rereads every book, article, review, notes and theses written since his first stay in Mexico in 1948-49 until the present for the purpose of finding the theoretical basis of his approaches to literature. His approaches to literature can be summed up in two words: "scrutiny" and "walking." Once he began this task, Menton realized that intrinsic reading is not always enough because it could not be done in a void. As much as a reader analyzes the form of a work with all the variety of technical resources, one has to place it into its sociopolitical context as well as the literary context.

A multidimensional exploration of the translation of Latin American literature into English, a process that is anchored in the region's colonial past and its post-independence process of developing and redefining cultural identities. In the first part, Latin American writers discuss translation, followed by translators who comment on their work in the second part. Critical approaches are discussed in the final section.

González Echeverría compiles in Crítica Práctica/Práctica Crítica a brilliant set of essays, scattered before in diverse, specialized mediums, to comment with a broader audience the origins and horizons of narrative works represented in the Latin American world: Gabriel García Márquez, Jorge Luis Borges, Alejo Carpentier, and Severo Sarduy, who give a temperate and universal voice to our continent. González Echeverría concentrates on the creative zones specific to those authors to discern aspects that up until now have rarely been analyzed.

Previously published by Oveja Negra, 1982. "The majority of these fifteen articles with nine Latin American authors have been made in Europe in the last five years. Some are very old: for example, the article about the three days in which Mario Vargas Llosa experienced public harrassment in Bogotá is from 1967; Ernesto Sábato's encounter with Alejandra in Manzinales is from 1970S the chronicles on the solitude of glory of Gabriel García Márquez in Cartagena; and the awarding of his prize "Romulo Gallegos" in Caracas was from 1971-72. All try to show in the most reasonable way the private and public images of the primary contemporary Latin American writers."
It will not be of much surprise that Colombia, one of the most dangerous countries in the world, according to Gabriel García Márquez, finds itself in first place with a total of 972 kidnappings. Just as in the case of Gabriel García Márquez's News of a Kidnapping, the kidnappings are located in a gray area between politics and criminality, often being difficult to decide in which one it is classified, or if it's in both.

Notes:
"Many novels from the 1970s and 1980s demonstrate an awareness of this through intertextuality with the chronicles of conquest and colonization: Mexican Carlos Fuentes's Terra Nostra (1975); Colombian Gabriel García Márquez's El otoño del patriarca (1975), published in translation as The Autumn of the Patriarch; Cuban Alejo Carpentier's El arpa y la sombra (1979), published in translation as The Harp and the Shadow; Colombian Albalucía Ángel's Las andariegas (The wandering women, 1983); Argentine Griselda Gambaro's Lo impenetrable (1984); and Mexican Margo Glantz's Síndrome de naufragios (Shipwreck syndrome, 1984) do not represent linear historical narratives, nor do they deal exclusively with the conquest, but they do draw heavily upon the colonial chronicles in the formation of innovative narratives that transcend particular chronological periods."

"How could the same characterizations have a purchase on textual worlds as different as Barthelme's parodic games, Italo Calvino's self-generating narratives, Gabriel García Márquez's magic realism, and Toni Morrison's brooding reframing of American history? In what follows, the postmodernist generalizations I shall offer refer mainly to the brilliant, brittle American fictions of the "60s and "70s."

"But this oedipal chafing passed, and while it has been long now since I've actually reread "My Faulkner," his luster as a navigation star was considerably brightened for me some years ago by Gabriel García Márquez's remark in an interview, after acknowledging Hemingway and Faulkner as his masters, that Faulkner is "actually, you know, a Caribbean writer." He didn't elaborate that aperçu, as I recall, but I found it charming to imagine that by transposing the greatest of our Southern writers just a few degrees in latitude farther south, he becomes one of the wellsprings of Magic Realism."

Notes:
This article discusses many different things about Colombia; in the section titled "A Nation in Spite of Itself" the author states, "A common Colombian culture is unmistakable. With great self-confidence, Colombians claim to speak better Spanish than the Spanish. Regional differences certainly exist. Folklore, song, and dance styles differ by region but are honored widely. The screechy rhythms of vallenato country music from the northeast (think bluegrass), now lead the national charts. Novelist and Nobel Prize winner Gabriel García Márquez and world-renowned painter and sculptor Fernando Botero are national unifiers. Recent Grammy winner Shakira is a great source of national pride." The author also references two of Márquez's works, "El general en su laberinto" and "News of a Kidnapping" in his notes.
"Reviews several books. 'Modernismo, Modernity, and the Development of Spanish American Literature,' by Cathy L. Jrade; 'Reclaiming Identity: Realist Theory and the Predicament of Postmodernism,' edited by Paula M. L. Moya and Michael R.

Fredinán discusses the difficulty that true surrealism has faced in Latin America, in large part because of Latin American writers' "compromiso social." He writes, "Creo que el deseo de remover la incompatibilidad entre su escritura y su postura política fue, al menos en parte, lo que llevó a García Márquez a reescribir el final de Cien años de soledad cuando recibió el Premio Nobel."

Based on his analysis of García Márquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude, and Isabel Allende's The House of the Spirits, Hoeg comes to the conclusion that contemporary Latin American fiction and criticism are characterized by rejecting technology as it is imposed by "foreign domination" and believing that it "leads inevitably to disastrous consequences."

"This thesis offers a discussion of spiralisme and of its contribution to the domain of Francophone Caribbean letters during the latter half of the twentieth century. In a literary universe dominated by "big voices" from the French overseas department of Martinique, the Haiti-born spiralisme has long remained ignored in, underappreciated by, and excluded from discussion among Francophonists. My project sets out to rectify this situation, not only by offering a thorough presentation of the spiralist novel in and of itself, but also, and perhaps more importantly, by integrating spiralisme into a larger post-colonial Caribbean context."

Notes:
"Magic realism emerged as a literary force in Latin America in the 1940s, and it has continued to have an impact on literature throughout the Americas through the start of the twenty-first century. In recent years, a number of post-colonial scholars have noted that magic realist texts are being used as a form of social protest throughout the world. These scholars have labeled magic realism subversive, hybrid, mestizo, or "impure." The implications of the relationship between magic realist literature and social protest, however, have not been the focus of detailed scholarship. This study explores the relationship between magic realism and social protest in novels written in Latin America and the United States between 1950 and 1990, seeking to determine why the literary mode of magic realism in an effective vehicle for addressing volatile social issues. Organized chronologically, the study begins with an overview of the term "magic realism" and a brief discussion of some of the important predecessors of magic realist literature in the Americas. Later chapters use a range of theoretical tools within a comparative framework in order to perform detailed analysis of specific writers - Juan Rulfo, Elena Garro, Gabriel García Márquez, Isabel Allende, Rudolfo Anaya, Alma Luz Villanueva, Toni Morrison, and Linda Hogan- in order to explore how magic realist techniques have been adapted to different forms of protest according to each author's time and geographical space."

Notes:
"The objective of this dissertation is to show that the Caribbean culture plays an essential role in Gabriel García Márquez's works, determining space, and structure and influencing his characters. In his books, the novelist revisits the first colonial chroniclers' vision and presents the Caribbean as a unified anthropological marvel, which irradiates from the West-Indian archipelago towards the southern portion of United States, Central America, and the northern zone of South America. The Caribbean culture is not only a vital source from which his narrative is born, but he cleaves his novelistic space into two opposite worlds, converting them in hyperbolic antinomies."
