Abstract |

|

$a"Caribbean writing from the 1920s to the 1940s has not always received as much attention as the work published in England during the 1950s and 1960s. Close examination of this earlier period, however, illustrates that a wide range of fiction and poetry was published, much of it articulating aspects of a nationalist and anti-colonialist perspective even as other projects arose from alternative historical contexts. Focusing on the 1920s, 30s and 40s also makes visible the generic and geographical diversity: poems, poetic anthologies, short fiction and novels were written and published throughout the islands as well as in England and the United States. As a result, this early twentieth-century writing represents the range of contexts to which Caribbean writing responded: the aftermath of World War I and the Russian Revolution; migration within the region and into metropolitan locations; the Harlem Renaissance; Marxism; attention to local ecologies that also critiques the spread of global capital; the rise of U.S. imperialism in the region, the Great Depression and the crisis of British Empire beginning with the labor unrest of the mid-1930s. Consideration of single works and anthologies from the 20s to the 40s exposes the tensions between an indigenous consciousness and concepts of literary form imposed or absorbed at the junction of empire, migration and coloniality"--$cProvided by publisher. |
