Die koloniale Karibik
Transferprozesse in hispanophonen und frankophonen Literaturen
[The Colonial Caribbean. Literary and Cultural Transfer in Hispanic and Francophone Literature]
Series:mimesis 53
Aims and Scope
This analysis of the kaleidoscopic world of the 19th-century Caribbean and the literary and cultural transfers that took place during that time offers completely new insights into early processes of cultural globalization. Racist discourses, established models of “white” abolitionists, the politics of memory, and the previously ignored importance of the Haitian revolution come together to form an amalgam that challenges the traditional notion of a purely Western modernity.
