ESSAY ON: Marquez & Salih/Gender in Patriarchal Culture

Number of Pages 7

This research paper: A 7 page essay that discusses 2 books dealing with patriarchal cultures. Gabriel Garcia Marquez in Chronicle of a Death Foretold and Tayeb Salih in Season of Migration to the North each address societal gender paradigms that differ from those found in Western industrialized societies. Marquez's novel features life in Latin America, specifically in Colombia, and Salih's novel takes place in the country of Sudan. In each of these novels, women are integral to the plot, but they are also sideline players in the individual dramas. They are pawns who are manipulated and utilized by the male protagonists in order to express the societal themes envisioned by each author. No additional sources cited.
