Cataloged from PDF version of thesis. Includes bibliographical references (page 77-79). Stories are always fascinating to every walk of life, but stories with magical or fantastical elements with of fairies or ghosts always amuse people. However, being a student of literature, I got an opportunity to look beyond this contemporary vision of magic realism. In postmodern literature, the attribution of magic realism is used to express the historical, cultural and ideological domination of the postcolonial regimes by its dictators. Therefore, in this dissertation I will discuss how all the magical elements are used by different postcolonial writers such as Marquez and Rushdie to express their postcolonial position in conjunction with the postmodern condition Salma Sultana B.A. in English 2010-09-22T04:58:26Z 2010-09-22T04:58:26Z 2009 2009-08 Thesis ID 05303015 http://hdl.handle.net/10361/178 en BRAC University thesis reports are protected by copyright.
