With the development of educational thought, it is necessary, albeit very briefly, understand its current position.

I would like to talk about the movie “Mountain Patrol”, filmed in 2004 by the Chinese director Chuan Lu. The peculiarity of this director's narrative is inherent in all of his films, but here he surpassed himself. Merging in one movie two different approaches – the artistic and documentary one was an unmatched idea. At least, hardly anyone else came across this symbiosis. It really turned out a beautiful picture, in which both actors and documentary were involved.

Nationalism, Religion and Gender are prevalent in the texts “The Good Lord Bird” and “The Farming of Bones.” The two texts stem out as informative and engaging pieces of writing. Both books are written from a comical stance, and embrace beauty in their calling. They are captivating in the way they elicit suspense and evoke varied emotions among their audience.

Is it or is it not Magical Realism?

When speaking about García Márquez’s inventive narratives, Spiller (1999) a professor of Renaissance literature, notes that his use of magical realism (MR) demands that the reader “accommodate both fantasy and reality within a single narrative structure” (475, para. 2). Magical realism is similar to (or perhaps the same as) fantasy and science fiction because the reader is asked to do the same thing; that is accept fantasy as reality. Gene Wolfe (science fiction and fantasy author) was asked to explain the difference between science fiction, fantasy and magical realism. He explained that the difference is “Plausibility. . . .
