Soleil de la Conscience (Sun of Consciousness) was Martinican
philosopher Édouard Glissant’s first published work, and opened
the Poétique (Poetics) strain of his oeuvre. This book-length
essay, which is characterized by its exploratory, intimate
character, announces Glissants concerns with créolisation
(creolization), mondialité (worldliness, as against
globalization), or opacité (opacity) and inscribes in this work a
refusal of colonialism and of inverted exoticism. The sense of
estrangement experienced by the author who arrives as a
“foreigner” in a country to which he is bound by “the first
page of his passport” is the author’s principal preoccupation.
By positioning himself as both different and same, Glissant opens a
space for the writing of a(nother) history: that of the Caribbean.
