Book Synopsis Defining the Caymanian Identity by : Christopher A. Williams
Download or read book Defining the Caymanian Identity written by Christopher A. Williams and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2015-12-16 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defining the Caymanian Identity analyzes the factions and schisms surging throughout the multicultural, multi-ethnic, and polarized Cayman Islands to identify who or what is considered a Caymanian. In the modern world where Caymanian traditions have all but been eclipsed, or forgotten, often due to incoming, overpowering cultural sensibilities, it is a challenge to know where traditional Caymanian culture begins and modern Caymanian culture ends. With this idea in mind, Christopher A. Williams investigates the pervasive effects of globalization, multiculturalism, economics, and xenophobia on an authentic, if dying, indigenous Caymanian culture. This book introduces and expounds the provocative solution that the continued prosperity of the Cayman Islands and their so-called indigenous people may well depend on a synergistic moral link between Caymanianness and foreignness, between Caymanianness and modernity.

Just as any visitor will enjoy learning more about the Caymanian culture, so will the Native Caymanians, who will see their dialect and their colloquial phrases showcased in print. In keeping with the tradition of the Caymanology Collection(c), Caymanian Expressions(c) is a symbol of national pride and patriotism and a genuine attempt to document and preserve the country's linguistic heritage for generations to come.

This book was released on 2018-12-09 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its discovery by Christopher Columbus in May 1503, the Cayman Islands has developed a reputation for being one of the most unique places in the world to visit and do business. As a popular tourist destination, the Islands feature many attractions but it has been said that the most enjoyable activity is interacting with the local population.Although English is the native language in this British Overseas Dependent Territory, the local dialect contains thousands of words that are often blended together and hidden beneath very strong accents. This adds flair to the Islands' cultural appeal.The Cayman Islands Dictionary(c) was borne of an effort to accentuate some of those unique words so that everyone can learn more about them and enjoy the true beauty of Cayman: the people.Inasmuch as any visitor will enjoy learning more about the Caymanian culture, so will the local residents, who will see their words immortalized for the first time in print. Some will enjoy the unique spellings and pronunciations, while others will learn the true meanings of everyday words such as bobo, tee-dee, ereckleh, flitter, gig, teets, pop head, buck toe, foppish, urr, and hickly-pickly.As the flagship product of the Caymanology Collection(c), this dictionary is the benchmark for future Cayman-centric products that will foster pride and patriotism and preserve its linguistic heritage for generations to come.

Book Synopsis Between a Past and Present Consciousness by : Christopher A. Williams
Download or read book Between a Past and Present Consciousness written by Christopher A. Williams and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-07-08 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an age of rampant xenophobia and the nativist imperative to undo globalization for a return to a bygone, “purer” age, can patently modern identities indefinitely sustain their messages of inclusion and equality? This volume serves to answer this and other pressing existential questions by tracing the development of the Caymanian people from the colonial era into our modern globalized, multicultural age. The emergence of Caymanian nationalism is extensively analyzed and confirmed as a phenomenon that was preceded by fragmented Caymanian identities informed by issues of race and class. Despite this, the native Caymanian people were able to successfully jettison their race-thinking, and in so doing, began to see themselves as members of a singular nationality. This notion of national and cultural solidarity, as this book details, has become a vexing issue, and is now being duly tested given the astonishing numbers of immigrants in Cayman, many of whom are keen to become Caymanians themselves.

Book Synopsis The Haitian Revolution, the Harlem Renaissance, and Caribbean Négritude by : Tammie Jenkins
Download or read book The Haitian Revolution, the Harlem Renaissance, and Caribbean Négritude written by Tammie Jenkins and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-08-10 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Haitian Revolution, the Harlem Renaissance, and Caribbean Negritude: Overlapping Discourses of Freedom and Identity, Tammie Jenkins argues that the ideas of freedom and identity cultivated during the Haitian Revolution were reinvigorated in Harlem Renaissance texts and were instrumental in the development of Caribbean Negritude. Jenkins analyzes the precipitating events that contributed to the Haitian Revolution and connects them to Harlem Renaissance publications by Eric D. Walrond and Joel Augustus “J.A.” Rogers. Jenkins traces these movements to Paris where black American expatriates, Harlem Renaissance members, and Francophones from Africa and the Caribbean met once a week at Le Salon Clamart to share their lived experiences with racism, oppression, and disenfranchisement in their home countries. Using these dialogical exchanges, Jenkins investigates how the Haitian Revolution and Harlem Renaissance tenets influence the modernization of Caribbean Negritude's development.

Book Synopsis Religion, Race, Multiculturalism, and Everyday Life by : Christopher Williams
Download or read book Religion, Race, Multiculturalism, and Everyday Life written by Christopher Williams and published by Ethics International Press. This book was released on 2023-11-25 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religion, Race, Multiculturalism, and Everyday Life takes a spirited conceptualist look back into the history of our development. The book sets out to explore the ways in which a punditry of human equality continues to lock in unassailably assured logical postures, enabled by the historically intertwined roles played by power and the passage of time, towards the invention and sustenance of social truth. Religion, race, and multiculturalism have been written about many times, and from a variety of academic, discipline-specific perspectives. Nonetheless, these social issues remain ever relevant to any sincere bid to understand the inegalitarian aspects of modern society. Religion, Race, Multiculturalism, and Everyday Life was primarily written with serious students of philosophy, sociology, the humanities, and history in mind. The author contends that we should never be too afraid to explore contentious or difficult philosophical and social questions.
Book Synopsis The Caribbean in a Changing World by : Stephanie Fullerton-Cooper
Download or read book The Caribbean in a Changing World written by Stephanie Fullerton-Cooper and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-23 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection is a critical reflection of the evolution of Caribbean countries since the demise of the West Indies Federation in 1962. At this historical juncture, some territories opted for independence while others remained dependent territories. The volume examines Caribbean societies in comparative and general ways, covering aspects of their ongoing development and challenges. It covers such areas as Caribbean integration, the state of human capital and social policy in the region, the education sector, Caribbean economic sustainability, and, significantly, the physical environment of the Caribbean. A central question has always been: should these territories have gone independent or stayed under some British tutelage? The book addresses this question, illustrating that these island states have made considerable progress, especially in the maintenance and deepening of democratic practices.

Book Synopsis The Confessions of Frannie Langton by : Sara Collins
Download or read book The Confessions of Frannie Langton written by Sara Collins and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This breathtaking debut, winner of the Costa First Novel Award, is a murder mystery that travels across the Atlantic and through the darkest channels of history. A brilliant, searing depiction of race, class, and oppression that penetrates the skin and sears the soul, it is the story of a woman of her own making in a world that would see her unmade. All of London is abuzz with the scandalous case of Frannie Langton, accused of the brutal double murder of her employers, renowned scientist George Benham and his eccentric French wife, Marguerite. Crowds pack the courtroom, eagerly following every twist, while the newspapers print lurid theories about the killings and the mysterious woman being tried at the Old Bailey. The testimonies against Frannie are damning. She is a seductress, a witch, a master manipulator, a whore. But Frannie claims she cannot recall what happened that fateful evening, even if remembering could save her life. She doesn’t know how she came to be covered in the victims’ blood. But she does have a tale to tell: a story of her childhood on a Jamaican plantation, her apprenticeship under a debauched scientist who stretched all bounds of ethics, and the events that brought her into the Benhams’ London home—and into a passionate and forbidden relationship. Though her testimony may seal her conviction, the truth will unmask the perpetrators of crimes far beyond murder and indict the whole of English society itself.
