<u>The statement is completely true. </u>Even though many records of the pre-colonial period haven been lost, Latin America literature has given great works in a short period of time.
We can see their vigour in the literature about their culture, tradition and history. It is necessary to mention Ricardo Palma with his <em>tradiciones peruanas</em>, Domingo Sarmiento <em>Facundo </em>(shows the dichotomy between civilization and barbarism). This wave of Romanticism brings another great work and that is <em>Martín Fierro </em>(José Hernández), representing the authentic Argentine tradition and culture.
Latin America literature has shown its vigour in many revolutionary minds. We first think of José Martí (Cuba) and his revolutionary ideas and poetry. Another great fruit of Latin America literature was the creation of the literary movement called <em>Modernismo</em>. It began with Rubén Darío and his book <em>Azul</em>. This is the first literary movement originating from this continent.
After that, Latin American authors have been producing original works and movements. Latin American Boom is well-known all over the world (it includes writers such as Jorge Luis Borges, Julio Cortázar, Gabriel García Márquez, etc.). A very close movement that arises in the same literary surrounding is magic realism. This great invention has brought a literature revolution that influenced authors worldwide.
The motif of marigolds is juxtaposed to the grim, dusty, crumbling landscape from the very beginning of the story. They are an isolated symbol of beauty, as opposed to all the mischief and squalor the characters live in. The moment Lizabeth and the other children throw rocks at the marigolds, "beheading" a couple of them, is the beginning of Lizabeth's maturation. The culmination is the moment she hears her father sobbing, goes out into the night and destroys the perfect flowers in a moment of powerless despair. Then she sees the old woman, Miss Lottie, and doesn't perceive her as a witch anymore. Miss Lottie is just an old, broken woman, incredibly sad because the only beauty she had managed to create and nurture is now destroyed. This image of the real Miss Lottie is juxtaposed to the image of her as an old witch that the children were afraid of. Actually, it is the same person; but Lizabeth is not the same little girl anymore. She suddenly grows up, realizing how the woman really feels, and she is finally able to identify and sympathize with her.
In this story, author's use of juxtaposition portrays the main character in great detail through the countless acts of character's realisation and analysis of her life. Lizabeth reflects that she had, “…a strange restlessness of body and of spirit, a feeling that something old and familiar was ending and something unknown and therefore terrifying was beginning" as she grew up and it scared her more and more. She regretted all the bad things she did as a child and the author's use of character vs self conflict created this suspense and showed how Lizabeth has changed through her experience.
