American Moralism and Latin American Magic Realism.
This essay discusses Latin American Magic Realism and American moralism in the context of Julio Cortazar's "Continuity of Parks", Ernest Gaines' "A Lesson Before Dying", and Helen Prejean's "Dead Man Walking". The paper shows that while Magic Realism is a writing tradition that blurs the distinction between fantasy and reality, American moralism makes ethical statements about reality. It does so by transcending the circumstances of the writing to address the basic predicament of the human condition. 5 pgs. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
