Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Virginia, 2009.

This study examines a group of fantastic texts written in 20th-century Mexico which feature child narrators, asking how the child's point of view subverts notions of or assumptions about what is 'real', 'normal' and 'commonplace', what specific aspects of the adult cosmovision are subverted, and the consequences that this subversion has for the characters themselves as well as for the implied reader. In order to analyze how the fantastic operates in these stories, a review is first presented of recent theories of fantastic literature and the modifications they suggest of Tzvetan Todorov's 1970 theory. The origins of fantastic literature in Latin America are then examined, following chronological order, with a specific emphasis on the fantastic in Mexico. Six short stories and one nouvelle from 20th-century Mexico are analyzed in detail: "El robo de Tiztla" and "El duende" by Elena Garro (1954), "Primera revelacion" by Rosario Castellanos (1950), "¡Sirila!" by Sergio Galindo (1985), Antes by Carmen Boullosa (1989), "Una, dos, tres por mi" by Maria Luisa Puga (1987), and "Follaje" by Mario Gonzalez Suarez (1991). In many of these texts, there can be observed a recurring presence of characters whose indigenous culture aligns itself with the child's point of view and in particular, the child's imagination (or fantasy) which, allows these young narrators a certain measure of power or control over their own lives and worlds, which the accepted parameters of the adults in their families does not recognize. The texts which lack indigenous caretaker figures also consistently feature children who feel isolated and powerless, and in the case of Antes , this situation indirectly or directly leads to the protagonist's death. The child's use of fantasy and indigenous culture to subvert commonplace Western notions of authority, normalcy and reality, challenges the implied reader to consider the fragile ground upon which these key notions are constructed in his or her own life.
