A History of Creole Trinidad, 1956-2010 de Raymond Ramcharitar

A History of Creole Trinidad, 1956-2010

Autor Raymond Ramcharitar
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 aug 2022
This book offers a history of post-Independence Trinidad and Tobago. It explores how culture and politics have operated in tandem to shape the society. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including literature, government reports, official statistics, the press and the Carnival, it critically analyses the popular conception of creolization as the driving force in modern Trinidad and Tobago. Ultimately, the book examines the way in which Trinidad and Tobago's unique ethnic and political ecosystems contribute to its national character.

Recenzii

“Ramcharitar makes a complex political history chronologically intelligible and very accessible. His recognition of calypso as a key cultural element is excellent. … A clear, scholarly, meticulously detailed and professional work of history.” (Anton L. Allahar, New West Indian Guide, Vol. 96 (3-4), September, 2022)
