The Post-Columbus Syndrome: Identities, Cultural Nationalism, and Commemorations in the Caribbean de F. Viala

The Post-Columbus Syndrome: Identities, Cultural Nationalism, and Commemorations in the Caribbean: New Caribbean Studies

Autor F. Viala
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 oct 2014
Reflecting on the relationship between memory, power, and national identity, this book examines the complex reactions of the people of the Caribbean to the 500th anniversary of Columbus's discovery of the New World. Viala analyzes the ways in which Columbus became a reservoir of metaphors to confront anxieties of the present with myths of the past.

Recenzii

“In The Post-Columbus Syndrome, Fabienne Viala takes the reader on a tour de force of the Caribbean’s history, politics and art, using the 500th anniversary of Columbus’s arrival in the Americas as its focal point of analysis. … The book’s seamless flow through several art forms and genres constitutes one of its greatest merits: the reader engages with Haitian novels, theatre in Martinique, Jamaican dub poetry and performative arts in Puerto Rico, amongst others.” (Jorge Sarasola, OCCT Oxford Comparative Criticism Translation, occt.ox.ac.uk, June, 2018)
