Description

Begins with a brief account of the various attempts to define Magical Realism and of the ensuing acrimonious critical debate in Latin America. However, the main part of the course will be a reading of some of the key texts of the trend, from its beginnings in Brazil in the 1920s up to the so-called Magical Feminism of the 1980s.
