Caribbean Literature

This course concentrates on the poetry, short stories and novels of the British Caribbean and essays written by authors. The course looks at how the literature negotiates representations of gender, race, class, sexual politics, marginalization, and other issues. The course also examines the ways in which Caribbean writers destabilize and disrupt the master paradigms of the English canon while creating their own New World visions and literary styles.
