| | | Title | | La figura literaria del dictador en "Tirano Banderas," "El señor presidente," y "El otoño del patriarca," Ph.D. dissertation, Doctoral
| | | Publisher | | Universidad de Valladolid, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Departamento de Filología Española | | | Publication place | | Valladolid, Spain | | | Publication year | | 1997-1998 | | | Page | | | | | Volume | | | | | Issue | | | | | Notes | | The novels about Latin American dictatorships are formed by elements that denounce the social, political, and economic problems of the towns that configure the Latin American world. Their main objective is to create a conscience of injustice and of the damage that men are submitted to in their environment. So that, the theme in "La figura literaria del dictador en "Tirano Banderas,"" "El Señor Presidente," and "El Otoño del Patriarca" studies the similarities and the differences in these novels with other Latin American authors who have studied the theme of dictatorships. By studying the thematic and stylistic development of these novels, we can see that Ramón del Valle-Inclán, Miguel Angel Asturias, and Gabriel García Márquez enter in the field of experimentation. In this way, the works contribute to the creation of a critical space that facilitates the study, interpretation, and the knowledge of the works that literally deal with the theme of Latin American dictatorship. | | | URL | | | |

Part of the book takes place on the coast of Colombia, in the town of Riohacha. Mujica writes, "This area known for its violence and lawlessness is also the inspiration for the best loved novels of Gabriel García Márquez, whom the people venerate, along with Octavio Paz. In this beautiful but savage land, children and their teachers flock to the public library and films by García Márquez attract steady crowds. In Riohacha the juxtaposition of the magical and the commonplace that marks García Márquez's writing is just part of the landscape." | | | URL | | | |

| | | Title | | Magic Realism and Social Protest in Spanish America and the United States: These Illusions Called America., Ph.D Dissertation
| | | Publisher | | University of Massachusetts | | | Publication place | | Amherst, MA | | | Publication year | | 2002 | | | Page | | | | | Volume | | | | | Issue | | | | | 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." | | | URL | | | |

| | | Title | | Magic Realism: An Allegory of Colonialism., Ph.D Dissertation
| | | Publisher | | University of Minnesota | | | Publication place | | Twin Cities, MN | | | Publication year | | 2003 | | | Page | | | | | Volume | | | | | Issue | | | | | Notes | | "This dissertation studies eight Spanish-American writers (Isabel Allende, Miguel Angel Asturias, Alejo Carpentier, José Donoso, Carlos Fuentes, Joáo Guimaráes Rosa, Gabriel García Márquez, and Juan Rulfo) and two French Caribbean writers (Maryse Condé and Simone Schwarz-Bart) and explores the use in their works of "magic realism" as an allegory of the colonial experience. Beginning in Chapter One with the work of Alejo Carpentier,... I have attempted to illustrate that the novel studies the trauma of colonialism and its enduring effects. Chapter Two examines the history and describes the elements that make up magic realism, illustrating its varied aspects with examples from the works of the authors cited above. Chapter Three deals with the history and description of allegory and shows how its characteristics mirror those of magic realism. Chapter Four studies the work of the two French Caribbean authors and explores the limits of allegory as seen in the work of Simone Schwarz-Bart. The conclusion makes use of a novel by New Zealand author, Janet Frame, to illustrate the fact that magic realism is found, not only in so-called "post-colonial" countries, but in the work of First World authors, where the effects of oppression are evident in the lives of the "colonizers" as well." | | | URL | | | |
