Abstract
This research is aimed to study the influence of Latin American literature on Taiwanese or literature in Chinese starting from the 1980s.
The impact comes mainly from the so-called “magical realism” by the “Group Boom” of the 1960s like Gabriel García Márquez, as well as the short fantastic stories initiated predominantly by Jorge Luis Borges and Julio Cortázar since the 1940s. Current studies on such influence have focused on novels but still very few, let alone other artistic representations or short stories which have aroused great interest from readers. This investigation is intended to look into certain concrete and eminent examples, based on some theoretical studies so as to re-examine the impact and how the great Chinese community has assimilated such theme into local representation.
