Between Two Worlds: Jean Price-Mars, Haiti, and Africa is a special volume on Jean Price-Mars that reassesses the importance of his thought and legacy, and the implications of his ideas in the twenty-first century's culture of political correctness, the continuing challenge of race and racism, and imperial hegemony in the modern world. Price-Mars's thought is also significant for the renewed scholarly interests in Haiti and Haitian Studies in North America, and the meaning of contemporary Africa in the world today. This volume explores various dimensions in Price-Mars' thought and his role as historian, anthropologist, cultural critic, public intellectual, religious scholar, pan-Africanist, and humanist. The goal of this book is fourfold: it explores the contributions of Jean Price-Mars to Haitian history and culture, it studies Price-Mars' engagement with Western history and the problem of the "racist narrative," it interprets Price-Mars' connections with Black Internationalism, Harlem Renaissance, and the Negritude Movement, and finally, the book underscores Price-Mars' contributions to post colonialism, religious studies, Africana Studies, and Pan-Africanism.

Este estudio presenta una vision innovadora sobre los estudios de literatura comparada caribena. La autora presenta conexiones nunca antes vistas sobre el desarrollo politico, social y cultural de la primera mitad del siglo XX en Haiti y Puerto Rico. Rompe las barreras idiomaticas para presentarle al lector las conjeturas que se pueden trazar entre las obras poeticas de Jacques Roumain y Luis Pales Matos. Tenemos ante nosotros una contribucion a los estudios literarios y de identidad del Caribe. Se retoman las metaforas de Kamau Brathwaite y Edouard Glissant para ejemplificar la union caribena, a traves del desarrollo poetico y estetico de los poetas (Roumain y Pales). El texto tambien aporta a la continuacion de los estudios africanos y su relacion con el Caribe (que no se limita al francofono o al hispano). Hay un estudio minucioso de la herencia africana en el contexto caribeno y una revalorizacion moderna del pasado colonial. La doctora Rodriguez-Miranda logra establecer las uniones esteticas y tematicas que tienen estos dos poetas y asi ampliar el debate cultural caribeno sobre el espacio y los componentes de identidad de los antillanos. La obra es una gran aportacion a los estudios culturales y literarios. Sirve como excelente texto para cursos graduados de literatura caribena, estudios culturales y de raza.
