"A lo largo de la extensa obra de Gabriel García Márquez el tema amoroso se has hecho presente de manera cada vez más significativa, desde los [amores difíciles] que, entre muchos otros cataclismos, sufren los personajes de 'Cien años de soledad' (1967), hasta los no menos arduos amores que ocupan el centro de las tres novelas que el maestro colombiano ha dedicado con exclusividad a ese tema: 'Cronica de una muerte anunciada' (1981), 'El amor en los tiempos de cholera' (1985), y 'Del amor y otros demonios' (1994)."

"En 'Del amor y otros demonios' (1994) Gabriel García Márquez parecía confiar en lectores a los que la lectura pone al borde del llanto. Se diría que así como anteriormente había escrito novelas que lo esperaban casi todo de la risa, de la crítica o de la nostalgia, ésta nos convoca a llorar."
"This article is about the role of García Márquez and particularly macondismo as an ideology in establishing the canonic validity of vallenato as a folk genre from the Colombian Caribbean. García Márquez's chronicles of the early 1950's are seen as foundational texts on the aesthetics and value of vallenato; texts which influence subsequent writings on the topic. One of the main topics explored is how these texts acquire canonic validity through the success of One Hundred Years of Solitude. It is then that macondismo - the Latin Americanist celebration of magical realism - becomes an interpretive metaphor for Colombia, and vallenato music becomes the sonorous emblem of this metaphor. This occurs through García Márquez's writings, his multiple interventions in Colombian vallenato festivals, and the way vallenato is subsequently taken by a journalistic elite of the country as representing a macondian sonorous paradigm. The article explores how these different elements coalesce in constructing a genealogy of aurality for vallenato, setting the parameters of its interpretive significance through multiple processes of folklorisation of the genre."

"Laraway suggests that the asbence of any fail-safe criterion to mark the ontological distinction between fiction and reality lies not only at the heart of the problem of philosophical skepticism but much of Jorge Luis Borges' fictional praxis as well." Mentions other Latin American authors including García Márquez.
"This Special Issue contains 12 papers on the theme of literature which holds representations beyond geographical reality, invoking instead states of mind, moods, and milieus, which widen our understanding of the world. Specifically, the following themes are addressed: the influence of Anglo-American humanist geography and the lesser known directions pursued by European humanist geographers; the experiences of a mental institution as portrayed by Janet Frame's Faces in the water; understandings of landscape and inscape from the writings of the eastern Ontario region; recent developments in literary resource interpretation; writing and iconography in romantic voyaging in the Alps; Dicken's representation of London and its reliance on verisimilitude; the texts of Beatrix Potter as a form of cultural communication; the works of Ippolito Nievo and what they reveal about the Friulian landscape; tellurism, mythical realism and magical realism in the works of South Americal writers Jose M. Arguedas, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, and Pablo Neruda; and poets and narrators and their local perceptions of Mendoza, Argentina." -- Scopus

"En inglés, el término 'historia' se desdobla en dos vocablos, 'history' y 'story', que en castellano pueden identificarse como 'la' historia y 'una' historia, respectivamente. Gabriel García Márquez, periodista y novelista, asegura la originalidad de cada una de sus obras, historias en las que, partiendo de imágenes reales, ni una sola línea es inventada."

"Amago examines Isabel Allende's ''Cuentos de Eva Luna'' in terms of Allende's evolving narrative strategies, much different here than in previous literary outings such as ''La casa de los espiritus.'' By examining the collection in terms of its intertextual elements, meta-narratorial conceits, well-structured narrative frame and non-specific geographical and historical context, Amago hopes to explain how the text functions not just as a collection of stories but as a unified fictive unit." Mentions García Márquez throughout the article.
