What is magic realism and how has it affected culture around the world?

Here, magical refers to the special ability we all have to imagine. Magical can mean conjuring up, but only in the imaginative sense, not as a reference to 'magic' per se. Realism is obviously the most ordinary places, times, and events in our world.Magical Realism combines two storylines of magical (imagined) and real, such as in the writings of Gabriel José de la Concordia García Márquez, a Colombian novelist. In fact, Magical Realism is said to have originated in Latin America with Márquez's "100 years in solitude".Pleasantville, the movie, may be another example of Magical Realism.In a sense, Magical Realism is taking an ordinary situation or scene from everyday life....and adding a layer which could not happen in "real life" but is happening in this new story. For example, magical realism could occur if you took a scene from your country's life, say 200 years ago, and placed yourself as if you were in the story as it unfolds now--but the story you tell is not bound by its original time, sequence, or outcome of the events, but your own telling of the re-telling. Likewise, Magical Realism could take a common realistic event, like getting up to go to school--and the story end up in an Alice in Wonderland type of story.
