ENGL 267 - Caribbean Literature

Credit(s): 3
3 hours lecture, 3 hours contact
Prerequisite(s): ENGL 112  or ENGL 192  / HONR 192 .
This course surveys authors from the English, French, Dutch, and Spanish-speaking islands of the Caribbean. Some issues that will be explored are the writer’s choice of language (the language of the colonizer versus nation language); the rising voice of Caribbean women carving out distinctive space for themselves; the significance and spiritual force of carnival; Negritude; and the writer in exile. Authors to be studied include Caryl Phillips and Gabriel G. Marquez.
