Book Synopsis A History of St Lucia by : Jolien Harmsen
Download or read book A History of St Lucia written by Jolien Harmsen and published by Robert & Christopher Publishers. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A History of St Lucia is the first-ever detailed and comprehensive record of St Lucia's turbulent past. Beginning with the island's geological formation and subsequent Amerindian occupation, this book takes one through colonization by France and England to the rise and fall of the sugar industry, the tribulations of slavery, the feverish hopes and fears of the Brigand Wars and, eventually, Emancipation. After 1838, St Lucia's newly freed people went in search of independence, dignity and respectability: an era marked by the immigration of indentured workers from Barbados, Africa and India, the rise of a peasantry, and a labouring class in search of new horizons. The arduous battle with 'Mr Hard Times' formed fertile soil for a hard-fought coming of age in the 20th century when unions and political parties developed amidst the turmoil of two World Wars and a city's Death by Fire. Forcing King Sugar to his knees paved the way to a new St Lucia, built on the 'green gold' of the banana industry- an era which in many ways came to an end in 2007 with the passing of the architect of independence, Sir John Compton"--Back cover.
Book Synopsis History and Language in St Lucia 1654-1915 by : Dr Morgan Dalphinis
Download or read book History and Language in St Lucia 1654-1915 written by Dr Morgan Dalphinis and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-12-09 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sons and daughters of St Lucia are likely to love Morgan Dalphinis' clear and readable account of the island's linguistic history. His soaring overview highlights significant points of interconnection in the web of language, culture and identity as the peoples of the island confronted successive waves of change and shaped their destinies. Consequently, St Lucian History & Language not only acknowledges influences pre 1654, but in light of identified developments between that date and 1915 Dalphinis asks us some provocative questions about the direction of travel for both the language and people beyond the early decades of the twenty-first century.

Book Synopsis Decolonization in St. Lucia by : Tennyson S. D. Joseph
Download or read book Decolonization in St. Lucia written by Tennyson S. D. Joseph and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2011-08-16 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tennyson S. D. Joseph builds upon current research on the anticolonial and nationalist experience in the Caribbean. He explores the impact of global transformation upon the independent experience of St. Lucia and argues that the island's formal decolonization roughly coincided with the period of the rise of global neoliberalism hegemony. Consequently, the concept of “limited sovereignty” became the defining feature of St. Lucia's understanding of the possibilities of independence. Central to the analysis is the tension between the role of the state as a facilitator of domestic aspirations on one hand and a facilitator of global capital on the other. Joseph examines six critical phases in the St. Lucian experience. The first is 1940 to 1970, when the early nationalist movement gradually occupied state power within a framework of limited self-government. The second period is 1970 to 1982 during which formal independence was attained and an attempt at socialist-oriented radical nationalism was pursued by the St. Lucia Labor Party. The third distinctive period was the period of neoliberal hegemony, 1982-1990. The fourth period (1990-1997) witnessed a heightened process of neoliberal adjustment in global trade which destroyed the banana industry and transformed the domestic political economy. A later period (1997-2006) involved the SLP's return to political power, resulting in tensions between an earlier radicalism and a new and contradictory accommodation to global neoliberalism. The final period (2006-2010) coincides with the onset of a crisis in global neoliberalism during which a series of domestic conflicts reflected the contradictions of the dominant understanding of sovereignty in narrow, materialist terms at the expense of its wider anti-systematic, progressive, and emancipator connotations.

Book Synopsis Kwéyòl in Postcolonial Saint Lucia by : Aonghas St-Hilaire
Download or read book Kwéyòl in Postcolonial Saint Lucia written by Aonghas St-Hilaire and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can historically marginalized, threatened languages be saved in the contemporary global era? In relation to the wider postcolonial world, especially the Caribbean, this book focuses on efforts to preserve and promote Lesser Antillean French Creole Kwéyòl as the national language of Saint Lucia and on the legacy of colonialism and impact of globalization, with which English has become the universal lingua franca, as mitigating factors undermining these efforts. It deals specifically with language planning for democratization and government; literacy, the schools and higher education; and the mass media. It also examines changes in the status of and attitudes toward Kwéyòl, English and French since national independence and presents language planning implications from these changes and steps already undertaken to elevate Kwéyòl. The book offers new insight into globalization and its impact on linguistic pluralism, language planning, national development, Creole languages, and cultural identity in the Caribbean.
