Essays trace key origins and critical terms, analyze the relationship between the marvelous and realism across regions, and explore how form and narrative strategies reshape space, identity, and centers of authority. The volume also includes bibliographical references, an index, and introduction-led framing of major debates in twentieth-century literature.","# MAGICAL REALISM\n\nTheory,History,Community  \nLOIS PARKINSON ZAMORA ANDWENDY B.FARIS,EDITORS  \nMagical Realism  \nMAGICAL REALISM  \nTheory,History,Community  \nEdited with an Introduction by  \nLOIS PARKINSON ZAMORA  \nAND WENDY B.FARIS  \nC1995 Duke University Press  \nAll rights reserved  \nPrinted in the United States of America on acid-free paper  \nTypeset in Berthold Bodoni by Tseng Information Systems.  \nLibrary of Congress Cataloging-in-Publication Data  \nMagical realism:theory,history,community/edited,with an  \nintroduction,by Lois Parkinson Zamora and Wendy B.Faris.  \nIncludes bibliographical references and index.  \nISBN O-8223-1611-0(alk.paper).一ISBN O-8223-1640-4(pbk.:  \nalk.paper)  \n1.Magic realism(Literature)2.Fiction-2oth century-Historyand criticism 3.Spanish American fiction-2oth century-Historyand criticism.I.Zamora,Lois Parkinson.II.Faris,Wendy B.  \nPN56.M24M34     1995  \n809.3'937-dc20  \n94-47223 CIP  \nTo Friendship  \nCONTENTS  \nAcknowledgments x  \nLois Parkinson Zamora and Wendy B.FarisIntroduction:Daiquiri Birds and FlaubertianParrot(ie)s 1  \nI.Foundations  \nFranz RohMagic Realism:Post-Expressionism(1925)15  \nIrene Guenther  \nMagic Realism,New Objectivity,and the Artsduring the Weimar Republic 33  \nAlejo Carpentier  \nOn the Marvelous Real in America(1949)75The Baroque and the Marvelous Real(1975)89  \nAngel FloresMagical Realism in Spanish American Fiction (1955)109  \nLuis LealMagical Realism in Spanish American Literature(1967)119  \nAmaryll Chanady  \nThe Territorialization of the Imaginary in Latin America:Self-Affirmation and Resistance to Metropolitan Paradigms 125  \nScott Simpkins  \nSources of Magic Realism/Supplements toRealism in Contemporary Latin American Literature 145  \n## II.Theory\n\nWendy B.Faris  \nScheherazade's Children:Magical Realism andPostmodern Fiction 163  \nTheo L.D'haen  \nMagic Realism and Postmodernism:DecenteringPrivileged Centers 191  \nRawdon Wilson  \nThe Metamorphoses of Fictional Space:Magical Realism 209  \nJon Thiem  \nThe Textualization of the Reader in MagicalRealist Fiction 235  \nJeanne Delbaere-Garant  \nPsychic Realism,Mythic Realism,GrotesqueRealism:Variations on Magic Realism inContemporary Literature in English 249  \n## III.History\n\nJohn Burt Foster Jr.  \nMagical Realism,Compensatory Vision,and FeltHistory:Classical Realism Transformed inThe White Hotel 267  \nP.Gabrielle Foreman  \nPast-On Stories:History and the MagicallyReal,Morrison and Allende on Call 285  \nviii Contents  \nRichard Todd  \nNarrative Trickery and Performative Historiography:Fictional Representation of National Identity inGraham Swift,Peter Carey,and Mordecai Richler 305  \nPatricia Merivale  \nSaleem Fathered by Oskar:Midnight's Children,Magic Realism,and The Tin Drum 329  \nSteven F.Walker  \nMagical Archetypes:Midlife Miracles inThe Satanic Verses 347  \nDavid Mikics  \nDerek Walcott and Alejo Carpentier:Nature,History,and the Caribbean Writer 371  \n## IV.Community\n\nStephen SlemonMagic Realism as Postcolonial Discourse 407  \nJohn Erickson  \nMetoikoi and Magical Realism in the MaghrebianNarratives of Tahar ben Jelloun andAbdelkebir Khatibi 427  \nSusan J.Napier  \nThe Magic of Identity:Magic Realism in ModernJapanese Fiction 451  \nMelissa Stewart  \nRoads of“Exquisite Mysterious Muck”:The MagicalJourney through the City in William Kennedy'sIronweed,John Cheever's “The Enormous Radio,\"and Donald Barthelme's “City Life”477  \nLois Parkinson Zamora  \nMagical Romance/Magical Realism:Ghosts in U.S.and Latin American Fiction 497  \nSelected Bibliography 551Contributors 559Index 563","cbCaip7bEtW18So2","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaip7bEtW18So2","pdf",7375635,5,1,60,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Foundations\n## Theory\n## History\n## Community\n# Selected Bibliography\n# Contributors\n# Index","[{\"question\":\"What perspectives does the book use to study magical realism?\",\"answer\":\"It organizes the material into Foundations, Theory, History, and Community, linking literary techniques to historical contexts and cultural debates.\"},{\"question\":\"Which topics are covered under the theoretical section?\",\"answer\":\"The theory chapters address connections between magical realism and postmodern fiction, the decentering of authority, fictional space, reader construction, and variations such as psychic, mythic, and grotesque realism.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the book treat magical realism in relation to postcolonial and identity questions?\",\"answer\":\"The community section frames magical realism as postcolonial discourse and examines identity through regional and transnational contexts, including metropolitan paradigms, the Maghreb, Japan, and U.S. and Latin American fiction.\"}]","MAGICAL REALISM -
