Abstract
The thesis examines Garcia Marquez's novel One Hundred Years of Solitude from an archetypal point of view. Its purpose is to show that the novel fits the description of displaced narrative irony as described by Northrop Frye and editors Robert Foulke and Paul Smith in their An Anatomy of Literature. It also examines how Garcia Marquez utilizes magic realism to build a world of epic proportion which exercises a blurring effect on the traditional romantic and natural modes while it suits the pattern of displaced narrative irony.
