Colonial Legacy in Caribbean Literature
Saakana, Amon Saba Publisher: Africa World Press
Year Published: 1989
ISBN: 0-86543-060-8
Resource Type: Book
The author argues that Caribbean literature has been separated from the source of its natural development by a colonialist educational system and the exaltation of European literary traditions and styles. As a result it has been difficult for a truly liberating literature to emerge, although the popular arts (music, song, dance) contain the historical trends of tradition and power.
