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.
