The essays examine a host of topics, including the following: -the development of multiethnic populations in the Caribbean and the role of various creole languages in the literature -oral art forms, such as dub poetry and reggae music -the influence of anglophone literature in the Caribbean on literary movements outside it, such as the Harlem Renaissance and black British writing -Carnival -religious rituals and beliefs -specific genres such as slave narratives and autobiography -film and drama -the economics of rum Many essays list resources for further reading, and the volume concludes with a section of additional teaching resources.
