The uncertain old man whose real existence was the simplest of his enigmas Biographical Sketch Colombia Colombia won its independence from Spain in 1810, technically making it one of Latin America's oldest democracies, but the sad fact is that this "democracy" has rarely known peace and justice. In the beginning, there was of course Spain and the Indians, happily hating each other as the Spaniards tore the land up in quest for gold, El Dorado, religious converts, and political power. The English, too, played their part, with Drake attacking Riohachi in 1568 and the countless colonial squabbles of the next few centuries. Declaring itself independent from Spain when Napoleon ousted the Spanish King in 1810, the new country experienced a brief period of freedom and then was quickly reconquered in 1815 by the unpleasant and bloody campaigns of General Murillo. So much did their internal bickering allow their fledgling country to fall to the sword of Murillo, the period is immortalized in Colombia's history with the colorful name of la Patria Boba

Search CNN Networks SPECIALS Quick News Almanac Video Vault News Quiz Gabriel Garcia-Marquez turns 70 March 6, 1998 Web posted at: 3:05 p.m. EST (2005 GMT) (CNN) Gabriel Garcia-Marquez, the creator of "magical realism," etched his name into literature history with such books as "One Hundred Years of Solitude" and "Love in the Time of Cholera." The winner of the 1982 Nobel Prize in literature is 70 on Friday. He has chronicled the world of Macondo, a town built from Garcia-Marquez' imagination and probably influenced by his childhood in Colombia. Influenced by a rich heritage, Garcia-Marquez gives such a detailed account of the physical and moral collapse of the town, it's hard to believe that it doesn't exist. The Swedish Academy of Letters said it honored him "for his novels and short stories in which the fantastic and the realistic are combined in a richly composed world of imagination, reflecting a continent's life and conflicts." The author was born in Aracataca, a village in northern Colombia that his grandfather helped found. Garcia-Marquez was raised by his maternal grandparents and grew up listening to stories of the War of a Thousand Days, in which his grandfather was a colonel. His grandmother was a staunch believer in folk tales and was superstitious. There were also tales of family ghosts told by the many aunts who flowed in and out of his childhood home.

The term was first used in the 1920s Germany to describe some contemporary painters, whose works expressed surrealistic visions. In the late 1940s Cuban novelist Alejo Carpentier started to speak of "lo real maravilloso" (marvelous reality). Carpentier recognized the tendency of Latin-American writers to combine fantasy elements and mythology with otherwise realistic fiction. However, García Márquez has considered himself fundamentally a realist, who writes about Colombian and Latin American reality exactly as he has observed it. "There is a short but telling portrait of the novelist Gabriel García Márquez, who every morning reads a couple of pages of a dictionary (any dictionary except the pompous ) - a habit our author compares to that of Stendhal, who perused the Napoleonic Code so as to learn to write in a terse and exact style." (from A History of Reading by Alberto Manguel, 1996)

Help Biography of Gabriel Garcia Marquez (1928-) Gabriel Garcia Marquez Gabriel Jose Garcia Marquez was born on March 6, 1928 to Luisa Santiaga Marquez Iguaran and Gabriel Eligio Garcia in Aracataca, Colombia. Luisa's parents did not approve of her marriage to Gabriel and Marquez, the oldest of twelve children, was sent to live with his maternal grandparents. On December 6, in the Cienaga train station, between 9 and 3,000 striking banana workers were shot and killed by troops from Antioquia. The incident was officially forgotten and omitted from Colombian history textbooks. Although Marquez was still a baby, this event was to have a profound effect on his writing. When Marquez was eight years old, his grandfather died. At that time it was also clear that his grandmother, who was going blind, was increasingly helpless. He was sent to live with his parents and siblings, who he barely knew, in Sucre. A bright pupil, he won scholarships to complete his secondary education at the Colegio Nacional. There he discovered literature and admired a group of poets called the piedra y cielo ("stone and sky"). This group included Eduardo Carranza, Jorge Rojas, and Aurelio Arturo and their literary grandfathers were Juan Ramon Jimenez and Pablo Neruda. In 1946, Marquez entered law school at the National University of Bogota. There he began reading Kafka and publishing his first short stories in leading Liberal newspapers.
