Thesis (Ph.D.)--Stanford University, 1983.

This study is a brief description of the kind of narrative which has been produced by some representative Latin American, Afro-American, Chicano, and Chinese-American writers in the last thirty years. The dissertation is an exposition of the ways in which literature can be related to cultural history as well as to rhetoric and ideology. The Kingdom of this World by Alejo Carpentier, One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garc(')ia Marquez, Sula and Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison, The Road to Tamazunchale by Ron Arias, and China Men by Maxine Hong-Kingston afford us a view of Third World authors who self-consciously write about American reality in formerly colonial and semicolonial countries.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This study is a brief description of the kind of narrative which has been produced by some representative Latin American, Afro-American, Chicano, and Chinese-American writers in the last thirty years. The dissertation is an exposition of the ways in which literature can be related to cultural history as well as to rhetoric and ideology. The Kingdom of this World by Alejo Carpentier, One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garc(')ia Marquez, Sula and Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison, The Road to Tamazunchale by Ron Arias, and China Men by Maxine Hong-Kingston afford us a view of Third World authors who self-consciously write about American reality in formerly colonial and semicolonial countries.
520 $a In Chapter I, I examine Carpentier's theory of the marvelous in the context of Third World decolonization, and how the various components of lo real maravilloso americano (American marvelous realism) are illustrated in The Kingdom of This World. The discussion deals mainly with the basic premises of his theory of the marvelous.
520 $a In Chapter II, I explore the structural, historical, and political world-view of One Hundred Years of Solitude and Garc(')ia Marquez's re-writing of American history from the Third World rather than the conquering Western point of view. In this chapter, I investigate the possibility of formulating a Marxist deconstructionist reading of Third World history.
520 $a Chapter III and Chapter IV investigate the nature of realism and marvelous realism in Morrison's Sula and Song of Solomon, and Arias' The Road to Tamazunchale. Everything that is present in Morrison's and Arias' narratives is an enchanting real maravilloso, to use Carpentier's phrase, a reflection of what has happened to segments of the Afro-American and Chicano communities in the United States.
520 $a Chapter V is a brief examination of the nature of the creation of narrative in Maxine Hong-Kingston's China Men. By focusing on Hong-Kingston's autobiographical narrative, where ghosts, dreams, "talk-stories," and gold mountains commingle, like ivory and leaves, another way to read Third World American literature is suggested. Fiction, memoir, epic, autobiography, or lo real maravilloso, Hong-Kingston's notion of claiming America is an artistic response to racism in the Americas.
