Postmodern Tales of Slavery in the Americas: From Alejo Carpentier to Charles Johnson: Literary Criticism and Cultural Theory

Autor Timothy J. Cox
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 feb 2015
Unlike 19th century slave narratives, many recent novel-like texts about slavery deploy ironic narrative strategies, innovative structural features, and playful cruelty. This study analyzes the postmodern aesthetics common to seven tales of slavery from the United States, Martinique, and Guadeloupe, Cuba, abd Colombia from authors including Alejo Carpentier, Miguel Barnet, Toni Morrison, and Charles Johnson.

Recenzii

"Postmodern Tales of Slavery in the Americas attempts something that few literary critics have been in a position to do: to examine comparatively novels about slavery across the English, French, and Spanish literary traditions in the U.S. and the Caribbean." -- George Handley, Brigham Young University Mississippi Quarterly
