Abstract:
This article explores the relationship between magical realism and marvelous realism in Juan Rulfo's Pedro Páramo, highlighting how the supernatural blends with everyday life in Comala. Based on the reflections of Naiara Araújo, Lorena Almeida, and Irlemar Chiampi, the study examines the dynamics of life and death, memory and forgetfulness that permeate the narrative. Magical realism, characterized by the natural coexistence of the living and the dead, contrasts with marvelous realism, which emphasizes mystery and reverence for the unknown. The analysis reveals how Rulfo constructs a literary universe that transcends the fantastic, creating a unique experience that reflects Latin American culture and imagination. The presence of supernatural elements, far from being merely decorative, is deeply rooted in the region's beliefs, traditions, and tensions. Thus, the work offers a reading that dialogues with both the concrete and the symbolic, emphasizing the complexity of human and spiritual relationships in the Latin American context. Through this duality between the two realisms, Pedro Páramo emerges as a landmark in world literature, challenging the boundaries between the real and the imaginary.

Abstract:
By investigating the first novella of the Decameron from the perspective of the sacred this article questions the notion of realism as privileged key to the interpretation of Boccaccio’s style, poetics, and even philosophy in his major work. Although with different nuances of definition, realism remains by and large the trait scholarship emblematically associate with the Decameron as testifying to the emergence of mercantile culture and bourgeois mentality. Realism as verisimilar representation of historical reality tends to be associated with the character of modernity of Boccaccio’s masterpiece. In this paper I propose a different approach and suggest an alternative notion of realism in terms of the effects on reality of the literary artifice. This notion encompasses the verisimile as well as the marvelous and identifies a mode of realism coherent to the moral instances of the Decameron.

Abstract The article discusses in which ways Carlo Gozzi stages in his fiaba cinese teatrale tragicomica Turandot marvelous spectacles by contrasting cultural spaces – Venice and China – and semantics as well as different dramatic traditions. Therefore, he uses a specific technique of imitation, i.e. the superposition, which allows him to stratify different dramatic models, the family-comedy, the love-tragedy, and the tragicomedy and to combine them with the oriental fairy-tale of the Mille et un jours. He establishes to such an extend a meta-theatre that questions the meanings of realism and marvelous. By doings this, Gozzis fiaba teatrale focuses on the multiple relations between subject and power in order to reflect the question what makes a monarch a good and ideal sovereign.

Abstract:
Nguyen Du entered the literature world as an experienced genius. Being a highly sensitive person, living in the chaotic times and going through many vicissitudes, the poet Nguyen Du was always anxious. However, those almost constant anxieties seemed to be transformed into the power, into the sublime (with the meaning given by Sigmund Freud) which in some moments helped the poet get into the calmness overcoming his ordinary ego. It was the calmness coming from the poetical creativity. In his calmness of creativity, Nguyen Du made the marvelously cultural matches. My paper focuses on seven matches in Nguyen Du’s works as of the following: (1) Vietnam and China, (2) Buddhism and Confucianism, (3) Man and Nature, (4) Vulgarity and Holiness, (5) Poetry and Novel, (6) Romanticism and Realism, (7) Traditionality and Modernity. The contents, the manners and the characteristics of those cultural matches could light up the cultural mind, the aesthetic perception and the intertextual tendency of Nguyen Du as representative of Vietnamese literature.

Abstract:
The article explores the novel American Street by contemporary US writer of Haitian origin Ibi Zoboy from the perspective of using the technique of magical realism. The novel embraces magic, faith in spirits, otherworldly forces as well as strategies of realism. The narrative mode of magic realism dominates in postcolonial writings as well as in fictional works that describe migration experience. The development of magical realism in different national traditions caused its variety and diverse forms of expression. Therefore, in this paper, the term magic realism or marvelous realism is considered from different theoretical perspectives. The term and the phenomenon it denotes started its history from the Weimar Republic modernist movement when German art critic Franz Roh coined the term. Then, in 1955 the narrative mode of magic realism became popular in Latin America. Alejo Carpentier, Angel Flores underlined that it is different from its European counterpart as its main task is to express the unique and extraordinary reality of Latin America. They argued that magic and magical elements are derived from the 'supernatural' elements of 'local' or 'indigenous' myths, religions and cultures. Moreover, magical realism relies upon the presentation of the imagined or magical as if they were real.The article focuses on how these different definitions are related and discussed by various theoreticians. It is concluded that the most relevant is Echevarría’s typology. He differentiated two kinds of magical realism: the ontological and the epistemological. Ontological magical realism has as its material beliefs or practices from the cultural context in which the text is set.The author considers the notion of ontological magical realism to analyse Ibi Zoboy’s novel American Street, in which magical beliefs and rituals help the main character survive in a difficult situation. It is emphasized that the religious component is an important part of migration fictional discourse.

Abstract: For three days Père Osmin’s escort of parishioners and police rooted through the village of Fonds-Parisien near the Haitian shore of Lake Azuéi, driven by a fevered mission to destroy every temple that served Haiti’s ancestral spirits. Along the way they puzzled over the sanctuaries for the ancestors and the spirits of Africa, now empty of their diabolic (to them) accoutrements. The anguished cries of nocturnal birds in broad daylight disquieted them as they passed. Nothing, however, had prepared the band of zealots for Oungan Bois-d’Orme Létiro’s temple, reduced now to ash and glowing embers at the hands of the Vodou priest himself. Through the thundering speech with which the oungan now greeted Père Osmin and his band, Jacques Stéphen Alexis in his novel Les Arbres musiciens (The musicians’ trees) was connecting the dots among the marvel of the real, Haiti’s ancestral spirits, and the violent consequences of closing one’s senses to nature’s mysteries.

Abstract:
<em>Magic realism</em><em>, or marvelous realism is a </em><em>style</em><em> of </em><em>fiction</em><em> that paints a realistic view of the modern world while also adding magical elements. It is sometimes called fabulism, in reference to the conventions of </em><em>fables</em><em>, </em><em>myths</em><em>, and </em><em>allegory</em><em>. &quot;Magical realism&quot;, perhaps the most common term, often refers to fiction and literature in particular, with </em><em>magic</em><em> or the </em><em>supernatural</em><em> presented in an otherwise real-world or mundane </em><em>setting</em><em>. The terms are broadly descriptive rather than critically rigorous. Matthew Strecher defines magic realism as &quot;what happens when a highly detailed, realistic setting is invaded by something too strange to believe&quot;. Many writers are categorized as &quot;magical realists&quot;, which confuses the term and its wide definition. Irene Guenther tackles the German roots of the term, and how art is related to literature. Magical realism is often associated with </em><em>Latin American literature</em><em>, particularly authors including genre founders </em><em>Gabriel Garc&iacute;a M&aacute;rquez</em><em>, </em><em>Miguel Angel Asturias</em><em>, </em><em>Jorge Luis Borges</em><em>, </em><em>Elena Garro</em><em>, </em><em>Juan Rulfo</em><em>, </em><em>R&oacute;mulo Gallegos</em><em>, and </em><em>Isabel Allende</em><em>. In </em><em>English literature</em><em>, its chief exponents include </em><em>Salman Rushdie</em><em>, </em><em>Alice Hoffman</em><em>, and </em><em>Nick Joaquin</em><em>. Magic realism was also called faux surrealism by artist and photographer Frank Van Imschoot. Whenever a piece of art looks surreal, but it&#39;s actually a reflection of the reality</em> &nbsp;

Abstract:
Cette thèse propose une lecture de textes canoniques du réalisme germanophone selon le prisme des inquiétudes que provoquent les éléments placés à la marge : le féminin, le fantastique et l’ornement. La base commune qui permet de relier ces catégories esthétiques, anthropologiques et sociales est qu’elles se définissent en tant qu’Autre dans une bipolarité : homme – femme, réel – fantastique, ›grand‹ art – ornement. La hiérarchie qui sous-tend ces oppositions s’avère néanmoins peu stable, de telle sorte que ces éléments marginalisés troublent le centre normatif. Le fantastique est abordé comme élément constitutif pour la mise en forme littéraire de problèmes sociaux actuels et ›réels‹, et les rapports entre les sexes tels que définis par la société bourgeoise, sont montrés comme mis en mouvement et ambivalents. L’analyse détaillée des textes de Theodor Fontane, Gottfried Keller et Theodor Storm se concentre d’abord sur la femme comme ›principe esthétique‹ et comme ›genre‹, capté et fixé dans l’image, et montre que ce féminin imagé et idéalisé se convertit au contraire en déclencheur d’une imagination débridée et déréglée, qui s’inspire de sources littéraires et mythologiques (Pénélope, Cendrillon, sorcières etc.). Elle s’attache ensuite aux modèles, aux rôles et aux normes liés au mariage bourgeois et aux enjeux qu’ils constituent pour l’acceptation ou le rejet de la femme comme égale. La troisième partie étudie enfin les rapports entre l’idéal familial bourgeois et la société patriarcale. Dans les romans le mariage bourgeois est hanté par les fantômes de rôles sexuels encore en vigueur, mais désormais obsolètes, ce qui confère aux foyers une inquiétante étrangeté au sens Freudien<br>This dissertation offers an analysis of canonical texts from German literary realism using the anxiety that is felt by readers and writers in what constitutes the margins of realist literature in the 19th century: the feminine, the fantastic and ornamentations.These aesthetic, anthropologic and social categories are linked as they are all defined by a binary opposition that turns them into the Other or the Inessential: male-female, reality-fantastic, art-ornamentation. The hierarchy upon which these oppositions are built is however not that stable as these elements at the margin do trouble and replace what constitutes the society’s normative core. The fantastic elements in the works of the authors are used as constituting materials to engage the literary discussion on present and real social problems at the time of writing. The relationships between the sexes and genders which were so clearly described in the bourgeois era are seen as ambivalent and in motion.The three parts of this dissertation provide an in-depth analysis of the works of Theodor Fontane, Gottfried Keller and Theodor Storm. The first section of the work will focus on the figure of the woman as an aesthetic which is both captured and fixed in the image. It will show that this idealised and pictured feminine becomes the catalyst for unbridled and unruly imagination. Then, the traditional roles and behaviours within patriarchal marriage will then be shown to be largely inspired by literary tradition, and in particular in the myths and the fairy-tale (Penelope, Cinderella, the Witch, etc.). Lastly, the relationships between the ideal bourgeois family and the patriarchal family will be analysed in the work of Fontane and Storm. As the era of German realist literature ended, patriarchal marriage was haunted by the ghosts of gender roles, which however obsolete, were still predominant. This paradox made families unheimlich in the Freudian sense

Abstract:
Ce mémoire est centré sur les caractéristiques fantastiques dans le Spectre large de Gérard Prévot (1975) et par la suite, sur une comparaison avec les caractéristiques d’un autre recueil de Prévot, la Nuit du Nord (1974), étudié par Ricci en 1993. Notre analyse est basée sur la théorie du fantastique de Tzvetan Todorov qui met en avant l’hésitation à savoir si le phénomène énigmatique provient de l’étrange ou du merveilleux.         L’étude de l’œuvre littéraire de Prévot est intéressante car, comparé aux autres fantastiqueurs belges comme Jean Ray ou Thomas Owen, Gérard Prévot reste relativement inconnu et peu étudié.         Pour ce qui est du résultat, nous trouvons que les contes du recueil ont des qualités variées relativement à la théorie fantastique. Les principales caractéristiques fantastiques du Spectre large naissent surtout grâce à une narration à point de vue limité et au narrateur obscur, parfois inconnu. Le fantastique naît aussi grâce à l’intrigue qui fait venir la force perturbatrice, souvent à la toute dernière page.         En comparant nos résultats avec l’étude de Ricci (1993), nous trouvons plusieurs points en commun mais aussi de divergence. Prévot a écrit les deux livres en utilisant un lexique similaire et les contes se déroulent souvent dans des lieux similaires, dans le Nord — un lieu ayant des connotations mystiques. Un fantastique dit « social » se trouve aussi dans les deux recueils. La principale différence entre les deux livres est la narration. Tandis que le narrateur de la Nuit du Nord possède un savoir absolu qui lui donne le statut omniscient, il est clairement limité dans son point de vue et parfois anonyme dans le Spectre large.<br>This thesis is centred on the fantastic features in Le Spectre Large by Gérard Prévot (1975) and subsequently on a comparison with the features from another collection by Prévot, La Nuit du Nord (1974), studied by Ricci in 1993. The analysis is based on Tzvetan Todorov’s theory of the fantastic, which puts its emphasis on the hesitation whether the enigmatic phenomena has its origins in the natural (uncanny) or the supernatural (marvellous) world.         The research of Prévot’s literary work is interesting given that, compared to other Belgian fantastic writers such as Jean Ray or Thomas Owen, Gérard Prévot is still rather unknown and not much studied.         With regard to the results, it is found that the stories have a mixed qualities in relation to fantastic theory. In the better tales, the fantastic is born out of a narration with a limited point of view and a vague and sometimes unknown narrator. It is also born out of the plot which introduces the disruptive elements at the very last page.         When comparing the corpus with Ricci’s study (1993), several common features are found, but also a few differences. Prévot has written the two books using a similar vocabulary and the stories often take place in related environments – the North, a place with mysterious connotations. A fantastic which Ricci calls “social” can also be found in both collections. The main point of difference between the books is the narration. While the narrator in La Nuit du Nord has an omniscient status, the one in Le Spectre Large is clearly limited and anonymous.

Abstract:
碩士<br>淡江大學<br>西洋語文研究所<br>89<br>Title of the Thesis: Magicking the Real: Total Pages: 110 Alejo Carpentier and Marvelous Realism Name of Institute: Graduate Institute of Western Languages and Literature, Tamkang University Graduation Date:June, 2001 Degree Conferred: Master of Arts Name of Student:Feng-Yi Chen Advisor: Dr. Chen-hsing Tsai Abstract In this thesis, I look at three of Carpentier’s novels─The Kingdom of This World, The Lost Steps and Explosion in a Cathedral and examine how Carpentier expresses in fiction his idea and ideal of the marvelous real. I study these three novels because they carry the same theme: the baroque spirit. For Carpentier, the American baroque has established a unique trend in Latin American literature called the “New Novel” that combines the magic and the real, the cultural and the natural, and the fictional and the historical. In Chapter One, I deal with The Kingdom of This World and demonstrate how black slaves use their “voodoo faith” to resist the repression and inhuman treatment of the French settlers, the dictator Henri Christophe, and Mulatto Republic. Then I discuss three concentric themes revolving around Voodooism: (1) how the metamorphosis of Mackandal explains the collective faith in voodoo; (2) how the rise and the fall of the kingdom of Henri Christophe connotes the betrayal of voodoo; (3) how Pauline Bonaparte reveals the helplessness of the colonists and as a result, resorts to voodoo. Chapter Two is about the search for cultural identity in The Lost Steps. In this novel, the narrator-protagonist-musicologist, feeling tired of life in the modern city, travels to the jungles of Orinoco to look for ancient instruments. The journey not only helps him to search for the ancient lost instruments but also assists him in looking for his roots. Thus, the second chapter will focus on the narrator-protagonist’s quest for his roots and his negative epiphany after the journey that results from his losing the way back to Santa Mónica de los Venados. Besides, by “reenacting the quest of El Dorado,” Carpentier expatiates how he invokes the “marvelous reality.” Explosion in a Cathedral, set between 1789 and 1807, echoes the French Revolution and articulates the transition of Latin America from the end of the eighteenth century to the beginning of the nineteenth century. My focus is on political issues, as exemplified in Victor Hugues─a real historical figure, who appears in Explosion in a Cathedral and in how the painting entitled “Explosion in a Cathedral” parallels Roh’s idea of Post-Expressionism. The comparison between the epiphanies of both Esteban’s and Sofía’s and the triad relationship of the three important characters─Victor, Esteban, and Sofía─will be dealt with in the third chapter.

Abstract:
Caribbean authors, due to the unique geographical, social and historical contexts of their work, have long been preoccupied with the notion of authenticity. Yet the project of uncovering or inventing an "authentic" Caribbean discourse has repeatedly confronted difficulties resulting from the intrinsic hybridity and dynamism of the region. In particular, discourses of origin and belonging based on national boundaries or ethnic essentialism have proven inadequate for rendering the "essence" of the Caribbean experience. This problem has been exacerbated by the fact that such discourses are generally dependent on European literary forms to be their vehicle. For each of the three novelists studied in this dissertation, the discourse of the marvelous seemed to offer a path for creating a fictional identity quest which would be able to capture something of this unique but elusive Caribbean "essence". The dissertation argues that by tracing the transcultural route taken by Marvelous Realism and later Magic Realism through three novels by Jacques Stephen Alexis of Haiti, Alejo Carpentier of Cuba, and Simone Schwarz-Bart of Guadeloupe, one becomes aware of an evolution in the use of the marvelous which reflects different approaches to the dilemma faced by the Caribbean artist coping with the seemingly contradictory demands of a Parisian intellectual formation and an authentic "Caribbean" sensibility. This evolution reveals an emerging "postmodernist" consciousness in the quest for an authentic Caribbean discourse, suggesting a growing acceptance on the part of Caribbean writers of the hybrid nature of their intellectual and cultural heritage. Using analysis based on writings by Antonio Gramsci, Edouard Glissant, Gayatri Spivak, Regine Robin, Stephen Slemon and Paul Gilroy among others, the dissertation explores the ways in which these three novelists, poised uneasily between two continents, have through their fiction and essays struggled and/or come to terms with the "decentered" positionality which seems to be so "central" to the Caribbean experience.

Abstract:
My goal is to study the nature of the Marvelous in René Depestre's Hadriana dans tous mes rêves. I want to demonstrate that René Depestre, in his novel, combines a number of surrealist or neo-surrealist premises that have influenced him as a Haitian writer. This goes beyond differences that can be discerned between the "Surrealist marvelous" endorsed by André Breton and the surrealists, and Alejo Capentier's "marvelous real"later proposed by Jacques Stephen Alexis as "marvelous realism" Depestre adapts Haitian natives' perceptions deep-rooted in their historical and social, cultural and religious past and ever-existing political and economical struggle. Taking into account both the surrealist perspective and the Haitian context, I shall address the complexity of the concept of the Marvelous and discuss Depestre's use of "zombification"as a form of metamorphosis, which preserves the mystical nature of Vodou as a religion that syncretizes the Roman Catholic ritual of exorcism of the Christian West and the animist and magical practices inherited from Africa. Scholars have explored the Marvelous and marvelous realism in Depestre's works as a whole, but not in Hadriana dans tous mes rêves specifically. The exclusive nature of this study will show that Depestre draws from Haiti's complex cultural ethos as well as from surrealism'es key principles, to create a hybrid Marvelous typical of Haiti and Depestre'es aesthetic as a writer.<br>text

Abstract:
The diploma thesis "The Return of the Baroque in Hispano-American Novel of the 20th Century - Asturias, Carpentier, Roa Bastos" examines Baroque motifs and principles in the modern 20th century Hispanic-American novel. It explains how these traits alter in contrast to the historical Baroque, how they are modified or what other functions they acquire. An attempt was made to critically rethink and re-evaluate the literary theories dealing with the reappearance of the Baroque in Hispanic America, as we consider their approach to be generalising and reductive. The interpretative method is based on Josef Vojvodík's Povrch, skrytost a ambivalence and namely how it addresses the manner in which the Baroque, Mannerism and avant-garde relate to one another. A characterisation of the American Baroque as such has been drafted and an attempt to capture the differences between the European Baroque has been made. The essayistic work of Alejo Carpentier is treated with an emphasis on the relationship of the (Neo)Baroque and magic realism. Carpentier wrongly attributes to the continent what he installs through his own optics without realising that such an approach might be itself described as being Baroque. The interpretative part provides a linguistic, thematic and motivic analysis of Baroque traits in a choice...

Abstract:
Si pour les ethnographes les mythes sont essentiels à la survie de toute société, cela pose problème quand on considère la Caraïbe et la rupture de l’esclavage. Une étude de la littérature antillaise réaliste merveilleuse nous montre que si les romans sont imprégnés par la spiritualité et le folklore, nous n’y trouvons aucun mythe des origines. Comment une société peut-elle subsister sans ces éléments fondamentaux ? Combinant une approche mythocritique à une mythanalyse des oeuvres d’auteurs antillais contemporains, nous émettons cette hypothèse : en s’inspirant de multiples héritages, ils se constituent une identité par la reconstruction de mythes spécifiquement antillais. Vu l’absence de romans antillais contemporains dans les études du magical realism et du réalisme merveilleux, notre première partie explore ce dernier concept pour en proposer une nouvelle catégorisation : le réalisme mystique. Notre deuxième partie examine les principes narratifs des romans en se demandant comment les auteurs parviennent à concilier un double héritage oralité/écriture et à sauvegarder leur identité. Notre dernière partie illustre enfin comment, par l’utilisation de schémas mythique spécifiques et un recentrement sur l’île natale, les textes mettent en place sa (re)mythisation.Cette étude permet la mise à jour de nouveaux paradigmes dans la littérature antillaise contemporaine. Elle montre comment le réalisme mystique est une modalité rattachée au magical realism qui, combinant réalisme historico ethnographique et folklore local, s’applique spécifiquement à la région des Antilles. Dépassant l’impossibilité théorique de transition de l’oralité vers l’écriture, nous révélons aussi que l’utilisation de l’ « oraliture » par les écrivains et le rôle de « guerriers de l’imaginaire » associé à certains d’entre eux propose une harmonisation oralité/écriture de même qu’une sauvegarde identitaire. Enfin, nous voyons qu’un certain nombre de romans réalistes mystiques proposent, outre une mise à distance de l’Afrique et de la France, un nouveau mythe originel centré sur la traversée de l’océan et un passage matriciel par la cale des négriers. Nous voyons également comment, loin de territoires d’acculturation comme les plantations, les auteurs développent une restructuration mythique de l’espace, notamment par une mise en valeur de la nature primordiale devenue propice à une renaissance identitaire.

Abstract:
The bible is indeed a world of the strange and mysterious when it comes to the variety of creatures that are presented in its texts. These often times serve as images of good versus evil, or order versus chaos. Flat and narrowly myopic literal readings of the bible that at times lacks for imagination and creative insight to the bible’s occasional and amazingly metaphorical maze fall far short of what is needed to appreciate the full depth of the biblical world’s imagery. Therefore this work explores the meaning of the bible’s mysterious creatures with an emphasis on three creatures that all appear in the book of the prophet Isaiah: Lucifer (Isa 14:12), Leviathan (Isa 27:1), and Lilith (Isa 34:14). These mysterious creatures of the bible live on and can both inspire and cause fear. It is a marvelous mixed world of biblical metaphor and realism to be found in the likes of Lucifer, Leviathan, Lilith and the rest of the mysterious creatures that make a biblical appearance.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter analyzes the “marvelous realism” found in contemporary Caribbean literature written in English by diasporic authors. It applies postcolonial theory to selected novels by writers including David Chariandy, Nalo Hopkinson, Cyril Dabydeen, and Kei Miller. These works accentuate how authors of Caribbean origin normalize the more fantastic elements of their cultures by utilizing influences and imagery while resident in Western lands. The Caribbean diaspora encompasses an amalgam of geographic, historical, social, and cultural issues, which showcase the impact of transterritorialization and hybridity in contemporary literature. The featured novels illustrate this evolution from “magical” to “marvelous” realism in first- and second-generation Caribbean diasporic writing. These novels contemplate the myths and legends that have emanated from their respective authors’ cultures of origin and highlight the social, political, and cultural ramifications of their westernized depictions of the supernatural.

Abstract:
Abstract Photographs and pictures of other kinds have various strengths and weaknesses. But photography is commonly thought to excel in one dimension especially, that of realism. André Bazin and many others consider photographs to be extraordinarily realistic, realistic in a way or to an extent which is beyond the reach of paintings, drawings, and other “handmade” pictures.

Abstract:
This essay shows how the idea of the South Atlantic as a space of dictatorships and banana republics was contested on the ground by literary experimentation and transoceanic influence. Armillas- Tiseyra uses Sony Labou Tansi’s La vie et demie (Life and a Half 1979) as an example of a dictator novel, a genre that spans the Global South. Armillas-Tiseyra argues for the term “constellation” to be used in place of “magical realism” to classify the genre. “Constellation” here serves as a figure both for the relationship of individual texts or textual features to each other (a loose configuration or grouping) and for a mode of comparison that proceeds by juxtaposition and collage rather than more rigid hierarchical systematization. The allows Armillas-Tiseyra to approach and grapple with the difficult relationship between critique and narrative form.
