For over four hundred years, thousands of African men and women
were taken from their homeland and transported across the world to
be sold into slavery. The history of this startling and horrific
period is perennially important, and recent scholarship has sought
to uncover the experiences of the slaves themselves in order to
uncover the voices of its many victims. "Slavery and Africa in the
Caribbean" analyses the written sources which have survived,
demonstrating how many Africans coped by adopting a flexible
identity in order to negotiate the cultural differences in African,
European and Islamic systems of slavery. An important work based on
Jamaican and African archival sources, this book will appeal to
students and scholars who are interested in slavery, gender,
identity, religion, colonialism and the African diaspora.
