Recenzii

"Edward Mullen's pioneering edition of the first English translation of the autobiography of the enslaved Cuban poet Juan Manzano by British abolitionist Richard Robert Madden introduced generations of scholars to the tremendous pan-Atlantic reach of the story of Manzano's struggle to create a space of freedom through his writing. Professor Mullen's excellent introduction and editorial interventions make this new edition a testament to the enduring relevance of this story, and major contribution to the fields of Atlantic Studies, Afro-Hispanic Studies, and Cuban, British, and Irish literatures." - Joselyn M. Almeida, Associate Professor of English, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA
"Mullen's Palgrave edition of Richard Robert Madden's Poems by a Slave in the Island of Cuba is an indispensable tool for scholars and students across the disciplines. He writes a thorough and carefully researched introduction that takes the reader on a journey through nineteenth-century Cuban history, highlighting Juan Francisco Manzano's autobiography and poems and Madden's life and translation of the slave-poet's writings." - William Luis, Gertrude Conaway Vanderbilt Professor of Spanish, Vanderbilt University, USA
