1 Lahore University of Management Sciences ENGL Magical Realism Fall 2017 Instructor Rabia Nafees Shah Room No. 125 SS Wing- English (Ground Floor) Office Hours rabia.nafees@lums.edu.pk Telephone 2128 Secretary/TA TA Office Hours Course URL (if any) COURSE BASICS Credit Hours 4 Lecture(s) 2 lectures per Duration 1hr 50mins Week COURSE DESCRIPTION This course will introduce students to the vexed, highly debated mode of expression called Magical Realism through both theoretical and literary texts. What are the distinguishing elements, themes and narrative strategies that help define a text as magical realist? How do differences of location and gender impact the creative output of the writers in this course? Why and how do writers use a magical style to comment on weighty social and political issues and what are the implications of this choice? And how are the playful and humorous elements of such commentary balanced with the poignant and the tragic? Important critical concepts such as mimesis, the uncanny, the carnivalesque and the grotesque, the fantastic and the abject figure heavily in discussions of magical s and students will learn to both understand and apply these terms over the course of the semester. The debate over whether Magical Realism constitutes an independent genre of writing or a sub-stream within Postmodernism will also be addressed. This dispute is closely linked to the subversive power of Magical Realism as a postcolonial discourse and thus the political and ideological configurations of the novels and short stories in the course will be perused alongside a textual and thematic analysis. COURSE PRE-REQUISITES Introduction to Literature in English or the instructor s permission.
2 COURSE OBJECTIVES - To develop an understanding of the term magical realism - to chart a commonality of concerns across the varied literary texts under discussion as well as illuminate key differences. - To foreground the politics of debates in critical theory such as the question of ownership of Magical Realism (in terms of trying to fix its origins, demarcate its definitions, subsume it within Postmodernism etc). - To highlight how the multiplicity of authorial locations in Magical Realist texts brings to light a variety of cultural concerns and different constructions of history. - To encourage students to engage the texts critically and display their writing and analytical skills through response papers, presentations and a final research essay.
