Early Modern Black Diaspora Studies brings into conversation two
fields-Early Modern Studies and Black Studies-that traditionally
have had little to say to each other. This disconnect is the
product of current scholarly assumptions about a lack of archival
evidence that limits what we can say about those of African descent
before modernity. This volume posits that the limitations are not
in the archives, but in the methods we have constructed for
locating and examining those archives. The essays that make up this
volume offer new critical approaches to black African agency and
the conceptualization of blackness in early modern literary works,
historical documents, material and visual cultures, and performance
culture. Ultimately, this critical anthology revises current
understandings about racial discourse and the cultural
contributions of black Africans in early modernity and in the
present across the globe.
