"Caribbean Literature in Transition ambitiously redefines received ideas of this region's
literary traditions to present a significantly expanded terrain for critical intervention.
By extending the chronology back to 1800, before either the Caribbean or Literature
had been imagined in their present currencies, challenging narrow definitions of literary
production, and reaching across linguistic divides, the critical interventions that
comprise this series deliver a substantially new framework for future study and research.
Boldly inclusive, Caribbean Literature in Transition attends to transformations in
genre, language, form, and platform as well as to the intricate creative intersections
between oral, performative and literary cultures, the intensity of cultural encounters
and exchanges that have forged creolized sensibilities, and the complex patterning
of local and global diasporas that have remained central to Caribbean experience and
have continued to shape the production and reception of its writings. The essays collected
here explore how Caribbean literary history is marked by returning creative and critical
preoccupations, as well as overlapping local and global connections inscribed by thick
historiesof oppression and resistance. The series importantly refreshes understandings
of this history for the twenty first century by drawing on the invigoratingtheoretical
insights of black atlantic studies, queer studies, eco-criticism and the digital humanities,
as well as historical materials newly restored by the archival turn in Caribbean Studies.
In sum, Caribbean Literature in Transition both generates fresh approaches to familiar
works and brings overlooked and forgotten works into view"
