Lecture on One Hundred Years of Solitude

http://www.mala.bc.ca/~johnstoi/introser/marquez.htm

This lecture "would like to suggest that this novel does, in fact, have something very insightful and important to reveal about the social and political realities of the world it depicts and that this theme may be difficult for North Americans fully to recognize." It also adresses the idea of the novel as an epic, its complex mix of comedy and tragedy, its double sense of time, and its magical realism.

Contains: Bibliography, Content Analysis, Historical Context

http://clcwebjournal.lib.purdue.edu/clcweb01-1/vega-gonzalez01.html

" In their attempt to reconstruct the communal histories of their people, Toni Morrison and Gabriel García Márquez rely heavily on the use of memory as a means to rewrite the history of those oppressed because of race, class and/or gender in a world where historiography has been dominated by the white man."
