Background
The story in Colombia certainly has its origins in pre-Columbian myths and legends. The oral tradition, which still remains in many communities in Colombia, with its jugglers, singers and counters, forms the ancestor of a country whose linguistic magic schemes beyond traditional logic. Thus, shamans, sorcerers and grandparents have left in their generations tales, stories, stories that at this time are still reported. Despite this tradition, the development of the story in Colombia to be studied different regions of the country. The north, the Atlantic coast, the Colombian Caribbean, has a culture of exuberance, pirates, wars, smuggling, magic, superstition, a combination of languages \u200b\u200b... people happy, talkative, mamagallista. Thus his music, painting, literature are full of the magical charm of the space environment and culture. The so-called "magic realism" that Gabriel García Márquez gave the history of literature, corresponds to the idiosyncrasies of Colombian-Caribbean people. His works are not free, they reflect (recreated) of the oral nature of fishermen, smugglers, grandmothers and uncles.

Colombia's topography with high mountains, the Andes, divided into three branches, the eastern plains with huge tracts of unexplored land, forests virgin Amazon Guainía, Guaviare, Vaupés, the Atlantic Ocean to the north and the west Pacific, the variety of climates, the diversity of products and as a result of feeding different forms of music (vallenato on the Atlantic coast, bambuco corridor and in the central area, the joropo in the plains, cumbia, on both coasts, the joint, the tango and bolero in most of the country), the different intonations of the English, the distinctive and particular ways of dressing, office and home environments, make Colombia a country with enormous potential cultural, social and political.
A Vision overview of the story before García Márquez
The most immediate antecedent of the Colombian short stories in The Ram Freyle Rodríguez (1556-1640), where pictures tell different colonial era, with a great mischief and novel structure, although the episodes have their own significance. The folkloric tales fill the pages of stories, as the country develops the literature testifies social and cultural relations of Colombia. Names like José Joaquín Ortiz, José Manuel Groot, Eugenio Dias, Ricardo Silva, Vergara and Vergara, Soledad Acosta de Samper, José Manuel Marroquin, Soto Borda, Manuel Rivas Groot, Efe Gómez, show this picture with tales of importance. But Tomas Carrion (1858-1940), the great figure, the writer who makes custom boxes of literary and social significance in the narrative of Colombia. Perhaps this author, with Joseph Eustasio Rivera, Jorge Isaacs and Gabriel García Márquez, who achieved universality, Latin American and global spectrum.

The course provides knowledge of the country, major regions of Colombia, to the themes and different styles, but ultimately brings the reader the knowledge not only of Latin American literature but the particularity of a sector in which violence is core its literature.
The tale of violence
From the English invasion Colombia has had a history of violence. Some communities chose to kill themselves be given to the conqueror. The struggle for independence milestones recorded where the Colombian people showed their character as a fighter. In the era of civil wars Republic fill many years in the history of this country.
In this century, the "War of the Thousand Days" had a bearing on the literature of Gabriel García Márquez, as social movements that led to the "time of violence. " The records are in the strike of banana pickers in 1928, when many farmers were gunned down by the Colombian army, which defended the interests of the American company United Fruit Company. In this episode of overt political violence and stark, is known as "the massacre of the banana plantations, and the subject of works such as One Hundred Years of Solitude by García Márquez, and the big house, Alvaro Cepeda Samudio.
In 1948 he was murdered in the streets of Bogota, the popular leader Jorge Eliecer Gaitan (defender of farmers in the banana). This caused a clash between the two Colombian traditional parties: the liberal and conservative.
Historians estimate that in this undeclared civil war there were about 300 people dead. Peasants, workers, students, general popular sectors were worst hit by institutionalized violence. Conservatives, political power, and liberals, in opposition, through their traditional leaders, fanned the flames so that the people are exterminated each other in a war with no ideological principles. The color red (Liberal) and blue (the Conservatives) were the motivating factors of this genocide. In this war were generated popular revolutionary movements guided by the Party Communist groups, along with newer ones still in political dissent. When the killings increased, traditional leaders decided to hold a plebiscite in which alternated in power every four years, in what was called the "national front". There is, then, a generation of writers who lived through the political violence of the 50's, one that is greater than or product of such violence, and a third lives of contemporary violence in the country: the mafia, drug trafficking, state repression, misery and torture.
Within this panorama has registered the Anthology. Generationally we can say that there is a first group of writers who spend now in its mature stage, a second intermediate, which does not exceed 45 years and the last, the younger, talented just starting a tour in the literature.
