PINEDA BUITRAGO, Sebastián. Literature and power: García Márquez in Mexico (1961-2014). Latinoamérica [online]. 2017, n.65, pp.11-33. ISSN 2448-6914.  https://doi.org/10.22201/cialc.24486914e.2017.65.56932.

This article looks into the intellectual context of the journalistic or non-fiction writings of Gabriel García Márquez (1927-2014), those that resulted from his experiences in Mexico between 1961 and 2014. This essay will address two questions: 1) Why did Garcia Márquez not write a considerable amount of journalistic work about Mexico despite the fact that he lived such a long time in the country? 2) Is there really a difference between the “magical realism” of his novels and the historical referentiality of his newspaper articles?

Palabras llave : Gabriel García Márquez; Intellectual history; Political journalism; Latin American Literature.
