Caribbean Cultural Thought: From Plantation to Diaspora presents a
critical appraisal of the range of issues and themes that have been
pivotal in the study of Caribbean societies. Written from the
perspective of primarily Caribbean authors and renowned scholars of
the region, it excavates classic texts in Caribbean Cultural
Thought and places them in dialogue with contemporary
interrogations and explorations of regional cultural politics and
debates concerning identity and social change; colonialism;
diaspora; aesthetics; religion and spirituality; gender and
sexuality and nationalisms. The result is a reader that presents a
distinctive Caribbean voice that emphasizes the long history of
critical writings on culture and its intersection with political
work in the Caribbean intellectual tradition from within the
academy and beyond. Includes contributions from: Antenor Firmin
