Book Synopsis Aimé Césaire by : Janis L. Pallister
Download or read book Aimé Césaire written by Janis L. Pallister and published by New York : Twayne Publishers ; Toronto : Maxwell Macmillan Canada ; New York : Maxwell Macmillan International. This book was released on 1991 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A pioneer of the negritude movement, the French Caribbean poet, playwright, and essayist Aime Cesaire invested even his most lyrical writing with a call for revolution and change in a prejudiced and flawed world. The narrator of his landmark work, the 1939 epic poem Cahier d'un retour au pays natal, bitterly confronts the squalor and spiritual deprivation of his homeland, Martinique. In this intense, often hermetic poem the cosmopolitan protagonist's search for identity leads him back to his origins and to a revalorization of black pride." "Cesaire's equally engaging plays focus on decolonization, primarily the point at which black progressive leaders face reactionary opposition among the newly autonomous black people. Cesaire's preoccupation with the ideal black man--the "culture hero"--prompted his dramatic retelling of the stories of such tragic figures as the Haitian revolutionary Toussaint Louverture, the Haitian "king" Henri Christophe, and the Congolese leader Patrice Lumumba, all of whom experienced an eminent rise to power and then a sudden fall." "In this first English-language study of Cesaire's poetry collections, plays, and notable essays, Janis L. Pallister looks at the author in the context of the groundbreaking negritude and surrealism movements to which most of his writing adheres. Approaching Cesaire's work chronologically and assuming little or no knowledge of French on the part of the reader, Pallister examines the two dominant themes of Cesaire's work--the need for revolution and the paradoxes of decolonization--and explores Cesaire's struggle to reconcile his art with the demands of a political agenda (he has been mayor of Fort-de-France and a deputy to the French National Assembly)." "Pallister analyzes Cesaire's works as products of a particular human condition--both in a historical context and in that of the twentieth-century social, cultural, and political milieu to which they pertain--and assesses the critical trends that have arisen in connection with this influential poet, journal editor, and politician. For the student seeking a comprehensive introduction to Cesaire or the seasoned scholar in want of a handy reference, this study should prove invaluable."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis Literary and Sociopolitical Writings of the Black Diaspora in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries by : Kersuze Simeon-Jones
Download or read book Literary and Sociopolitical Writings of the Black Diaspora in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries written by Kersuze Simeon-Jones and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2010-06-22 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literary and Sociopolitical Writings of the Black Diaspora in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries traces the historiography of literary and sociopolitical movements of the Black Diaspora in the writings of key political figures. It comparatively and dialogically examines such movements as Pan-Africanism, Garveyism, IndigZnisme, New Negro Renaissance, NZgritude, and Afrocriollo. To study the key ideologies that emerged as collective black thought within the Diaspora, particular attention is given to the philosophies of Black Nationalism, Black Internationalism, and Universal Humanism. Each leader and writer helped establish new dimensions to evolving movements; thus, the text discerns the temporal, spatial, and conceptual development of each literary and sociopolitical movement. To probe the comparative and transnational trajectories of the movements while concurrently examining the geopolitical distinctions, the text focuses on leaders who psychologically, culturally, and/or physically traveled throughout Africa, the Americas, and Europe, and whose ideas were disseminated and influenced a number of contemporaries and successors. Such approach dismantles geographic, language, and generation barriers, for a comprehensive analysis. Indeed, it was through the works transmitted from one generation to the next that leaders learned the lessons of history, particularly the lessons of organizational strategies, which are indispensable to sustained and successful liberation movements.
Book Synopsis Caribbean Critique by : Nick Nesbitt
Download or read book Caribbean Critique written by Nick Nesbitt and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caribbean Critique seeks to define and analyse the distinctive contribution of francophone Caribbean thinkers to post-Kantian Critical Theory. The book argues that the singular project of these thinkers has been to forge a brand of critique that, while borrowing tools from North Atlantic predecessors such as Rousseau, Hegel, Marx, and Lukacs, was from the start marked indelibly by the experiential imperatives of the Middle Passage, slavery and imperialism. Individual chapters address thinkers such as Toussaint Louverture, Victor Schoelcher, Aime and Suzanne Cesaire, Rene Menil, Frantz Fanon & Maryse Conde.

Book Synopsis Free and French in the Caribbean by : John Patrick Walsh
Download or read book Free and French in the Caribbean written by John Patrick Walsh and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2013-04-12 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “All the ingredients to become the next important book in the field of postcolonial studies with the emphasis on French Caribbean culture and literature.”—Daniel Desormeaux, University of Chicago In Free and French in the Caribbean, John Patrick Walsh studies the writings of Toussaint Louverture and Aimé Césaire to examine how they conceived of and narrated two defining events in the decolonializing of the French Caribbean: the revolution that freed the French colony of Saint-Domingue in 1803 and the departmentalization of Martinique and other French colonies in 1946. Walsh emphasizes the connections between these events and the distinct legacies of emancipation in the narratives of revolution and nationhood passed on to successive generations. By reexamining Louverture and Césaire in light of their multilayered narratives, the book offers a deeper understanding of the historical and contemporary phenomenon of “free and French” in the Caribbean. “A fruitful intervention in a growing body of literature and increasingly lively debate on the Haitian Revolution and the figure of Toussaint Louverture, the book also contributes to the emerging scholarship on Césaire, Francophone literature, and postcolonial theory.”—Gary Wilder, CUNY Graduate Center “A valuable contribution to both the rapidly proliferating literature on the Haitian Revolution and the emerging revisionist appreciation of Césaire’s intellectual and political project.”—Small Axe “J.P. Walsh has produced for the nonspecialist reader an excellent analysis of the historiographical discourse on Toussaint Louverture and Aimé Césaire with a focus on the meaning(s) of decolonization in the late eighteenth and mid-twentieth centuries.”—New West Indian Guide “That Free and French inspires so many questions is testament to its ambition, the provocative parallel at its heart, and the richness of Walsh’s analysis.”—H-Empire
Book Synopsis Return to my Native Land by : Aime Cesaire
Download or read book Return to my Native Land written by Aime Cesaire and published by Archipelago. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A work of immense cultural significance and beauty, this long poem became an anthem for the African diaspora and the birth of the Negritude movement. With unusual juxtapositions of object and metaphor, a bouquet of language-play, and deeply resonant rhythms, Césaire considered this work a "break into the forbidden," at once a cry of rebellion and a celebration of black identity. More praise: "The greatest living poet in the French language."--American Book Review "Martinique poet Aime Cesaire is one of the few pure surrealists alive today. By this I mean that his work has never compromised its wild universe of double meanings, stretched syntax, and unexpected imagery. This long poem was written at the end of World War II and became an anthem for many blacks around the world. Eshleman and Smith have revised their original 1983 translations and given it additional power by presenting Cesaire's unique voice as testament to a world reduced in size by catastrophic events." --Bloomsbury Review "Through his universal call for the respect of human dignity, consciousness and responsibility, he will remain a symbol of hope for all oppressed peoples." --Nicolas Sarkozy "Evocative and thoughtful, touching on human aspiration far beyond the scale of its specific concerns with Cesaire's native land - Martinique." --The Times
