Maps out a history of the region's literary production alongside a history of its reception and interpretation. It provides new critical approaches that will open up future scholarly engagement with early Caribbean literature.
This volume offers comprehensive insights into the diversity of Caribbean literature, writers, themes, genres, and political interests. Drawing on the approaches of postcolonial studies, gender studies, queer studies, eco-criticism, and digital humanities, these essays open up new critical horizons and bring an expanded tradition into view.
The years between the 1920s and 1970s are key for the development of Caribbean literature, producing the founding canonical literary texts of the Anglophone Caribbean. This volume features essays by major scholars as well as emerging voices revisiting important moments from that era to open up new perspectives. Caribbean contributions to the Harlem Renaissance, to the Windrush generation publishing in England after World War II, and to the regional reverberations of the Cuban Revolution all feature prominently in this story. At the same time, we uncover lesser known stories of writers publishing in regional newspapers and journals, of pioneering women writers, and of exchanges with Canada and the African continent. From major writers like Derek Walcott, V.S. Naipaul, George Lamming, and Jean Rhys to recently recuperated figures like Eric Walrond, Una Marson, Sylvia Wynter, and Ismith Khan, this volume sets a course for the future study of Caribbean literature.
