I enjoyed your explanation of magical realism. It provoked a few questions, which I'd like to ask here if you don't mind. First, I gather from the authors you cited (Marquez and Rushdie in particular) that magical realism is an important tool of social critique in the literature written by subaltern populations - that is, the literature written by oppressed or formerly colonized peoples. Is this accurate? Second, magical realism as written by such authors seems to be one of the tools used to write a kind of parable that interrogates, subverts, or challenges the narrative presented by the dominant culture. Is this correct? Third, it seems that the term "magical realism" has begun to lose its focus in recent usage, as its meaning has begun to degenerate into a type of entertaining fantasy fiction. Am I correct in making this conclusion? Last, would you consider Haruki Murakami to be a magic realist author? Salamat po! P.S. Do you have any other lectures or materials on magical realism, or a list of recommended authors whose writings contain the five elements you have identified?
Kudos Mr Perci for your teachings.Would you please help me a term you mentioned in character and characterization.You mentioned that a reader would feel for a character, you said it was ......... experience.
